Regardless of internationals happening, there's Major League Soccer action at several venues on Saturday, including at Subaru Park, where the Philadelphia Union and St. Louis City are due to go head-to-head. This will be the first ever competitive meeting between the two teams. The hosts will be looking to bounce back having struggled when last in action, losing at home to Nashville. We know that Bradley Carnell's men can do some serious damage offensively, as they've shown in pretty much every game so far this season, but they are struggling to keep things tight, which is worrying.
For the visitors, defending hasn't been much of an issue in recent games, with Olof Mellberg's men coming into this game off the back of consecutive clean sheets, getting the job done against both the Los Angeles Galaxy and the Seattle Sounders. In fact, we're talking about a team that is yet to lose this season, as well as a team that is yet to concede. It's early days, sure, but the signs are certainly positive.

Our Philadelphia Union vs Saint Louis City SC Prediction
Let's face it, the Union, as strong as they can be, haven't made a great start to the season defensively at home. They're yet to keep a clean sheet, conceding four goals in two games at Subaru Park, conceding plenty of chances against both Cincinnati and Nashville. Against an in-form St.
Louis side that can certainly hit on the break, they could struggle to keep it tight. Don't be surprised if Marcel Hartel, who has been shooting with serious regularity in recent games, makes his presence felt. Given his numbers, he looks a great bet to score at chunky-looking odds of +380.
