Two teams looking to bounce back after disappointing results last time out will clash at Yankee Stadium on Saturday evening, when NYCFC and the Philadelphia Union will lock horns. When the boys from the Bronx got the better of the New England Revolution, winning two games in a row for the first time this season, it looked as if Pascal Jansen's men had turned a corner. They've since reversed around the same corner, moving in the wrong direction, winning none of their last three fixtures, two of which they've lost. After to Minnesota last time out, can they bounce back?
The Philly boys also need to bounce back following a loss against Inter Miami, which was followed by a 0-0 tie at home to Orlando. Defensively, we haven't seen the visitors give an awful lot away, but they've been struggling to get going offensively, scoring more than once in none of their last four games. After failing to score last time out, they go in search of better at Yankee Stadium.
