Nashville and Philadelphia have both made good starts to the MLS season and will be looking to climb the Eastern Conference standings in this matchday 12 fixture at the Nissan Stadium in Tennessee.  This will mark the first time that these sides have played each other with sixth placed Nashville only being in MLS for their second season while third placed Philadelphia have being playing since 2010.

The hosts are strong at home with seven games played and no defeats with four of these finishing all-square.  A 1-1 draw with Montreal last time out put to an end a run of three straight victories at their own place but Nashville will be boosted by the return of Venezuela international Jhonder Cadiz.

Philadelphia will be full of confidence as their 3-3 with Chicago Fire last time out made it eight games without defeat in the league and no defeat from any of their five on the road this season.  They will also see a player return from the Copa America with Jose Martinez back from action after Venezuela failed to reach the last eight.
