Philadelphia Union vs Nashville SC - 20/07/24

Philadelphia Union vs Nashville SC Prediction & Preview

Preview

Saturday's Major League Soccer match at Subaru Park sees Philadelphia Union host Nashville SC, with the home side looking to capitalize on their favorable recent head-to-head record against their opponents. The Union have won two of their last five meetings with Nashville, while three matches have ended in draws.

Philadelphia Union coach Jim Curtin will be hoping his team can build on their impressive 5-1 win over New England at Talen Energy Stadium in their last outing. Meanwhile, Brian Joseph Callaghan II's Nashville SC are still searching for their first win in five matches, having lost their last game 0-3 to Orlando City at GEODIS Park.

The Union have struggled of late, with only one win in their last five games, while Nashville SC have failed to pick up a single point in that same period. Philadelphia's average of 2.2 goals scored per game could prove too much for Nashville, who concede an average of 2.6 goals per match.

When the two teams met earlier this season at First Tennessee Park, Philadelphia Union came out on top with a 2-1 victory. The Union will be confident of repeating that feat at home, where they have averaged 2.5 goals scored and just 0.5 conceded per game.

Bet

Considering the recent form and head-to-head record, I would recommend a Home Win for Philadelphia Union at odds of 1.9. With Nashville SC struggling to find any sort of rhythm, it's difficult to see them leaving Subaru Park with anything other than a defeat. The Union's potent attack, combined with their strong home record, makes them the most likely winners in this match.
