Orlando City SC vs Philadelphia Union Prediction & Picks - Major League Soccer
by Bradley Gibbs | in Major League Soccer Picks
Major League Soccer is finally back and we've got several fixtures to get stuck into on Saturday, one of which sees Orlando City take on the Philadelphia Union at Exploria Stadium, where both teams will be hoping to make a positive start to the 2025 season.
It was close but not close enough for Orlando last season, with the men in purple performing admirably during the regular season, before carrying their strong form with them into the postseason, where they got to within one game of a shot at the MLS Cup, losing narrowly to the Red Bulls in the Eastern Conference final. They'll be hoping to go one better this season, that's for sure.
For the Union, the 2024 campaign was a disappointing one. Struggling for consistency, they could just never get going, eventually missing out on the playoffs thanks to a poor 12th place finish in the Eastern Conference. Following what was clearly weak seasonal effort, those in charge opted for a change in head coach, bringing in Bradley Carnell, who was most recently in charge of St Louis City.
