Philadelphia Union will seek to get back to winning ways when they host Atlanta United on Thursday in Major League Soccer. The two teams are separated by two points in the Eastern Conference standings with fourth-placed Union sitting above United in sixth. Philadelphia Union have failed to win any of their last five fixtures. This has put their chances of qualifying for the CONCACAF Champions Cup in question. Jim Curtin's men sit fifth in the overall standings with just one point keeping them in the continental places. The positive though from this run without a win is that they have proven hard to beat. Union have drawn their last five matches. They secured a one-all draw away to Columbus Crew last time out to extend their unbeaten run to six games. Union have amassed 51 points and have already qualified for the playoffs.

Atlanta United have also booked a place in the playoffs. They are now chasing a Champions Cup slot and a win here will see them inch closer to achieving this. The visitors also arrive for Thursday's fixture with an unbeaten record of their own. Gonzalo Pineda's men haven't lost in four outings and have won twice in this run. They were 4-1 winners at home against Montreal last time out to secure their 13th win of the season. United won the reverse fixture against their Eastern Conference rivals 2-0. They have now not lost or conceded against the Union in two meetings.
