Game Preview
It has been a strong showing by the Philadelphia Union throughout the MLS campaign in 2025. They ended the regular season at the top of the Eastern Conference standings, and they have continued to play at a high standard since the playoffs have gotten underway.
They easily progressed through to this stage after beating the Chicago Fire in back-to-back games in the opening round. Their counter-attacking style of play saw the Union net three times in the opening 35 minutes of their Game Two in Chicago.
New York City FC will be the outsiders in this playoff series, but they have caught the eye in patches throughout the campaign. They ended the regular season in fifth in the Eastern Conference, and they edged through a competitive first-round series against Charlotte before the November international break.
New York have been competitive across home and away matches this season, winning 51% of their fixtures. Meanwhile, they have excelled defensively after keeping clean sheets in 30% of their matches. However, they will need to be offensively stronger on their travels in this clash after netting just 1.37 goals per game on their travels.
Philadelphia Union vs. New York City Picks
This should be a more competitive clash than the odds suggest. NYC have grown in character throughout the campaign, and if maintaining their strong defensive record, they could be among the most interesting Philadelphia Union vs. New York City picks on Sunday.
