Philadelphia Union host Orlando City at Subaru Park on Saturday, September 26 (7:30 PM ET / 6:30 PM CT / 4:30 PM PT).
Team news is light on both sides — no fresh absences flagged for either club heading into this one. Philadelphia Union’s attack runs through Milan Iloski, who leads the group with 13 goals this season, with Bruno Damiani Píriz and midfielder Cavan Ayaz Sullivan offering support from deeper positions. Orlando City will lean on Martín Ezequiel Ojeda and Antoine Griezmann up top, with Tyrese Leandro Spicer looking to link play from midfield.
Philadelphia Union arrive on a five-match winning run that has carried them to sixth in the Eastern Conference, while Orlando City sit just below them in seventh, still in the playoff mix but coming off a loss. Subaru Park should be a tight, competitive watch, with both attacks carrying enough goal threat to make it an open contest rather than a cagey one.
