New England Revolution host Philadelphia Union at Gillette Stadium on Saturday night, with the table and the head-to-head telling completely different stories.<\/strong> Kick-off is Saturday, May 9, at 7:30 PM ET.<\/p>\n

The Revs sit second in the Eastern Conference on 19 points, four behind Nashville and perfect at home. Philadelphia have one win all season \u2014 11 games in \u2014 and are the East’s bottom club on six points. Yet the H2H is wildly out of step with that table: Philly have won eight of the last nine meetings between the clubs, with just one Revs win.<\/p>\n

That history is why bet365 have this priced almost as a coin flip \u2014 New England at +155, Philadelphia at +157.<\/p>\n

Milan Iloski to score anytime<\/strong><\/td>\n+240 @ bet365<\/a>
(29.4%)<\/td>\n		\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50<\/td>\nIloski<\/strong> has 10 shots on target and two goals \u2014 the only Philly forward producing volume.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n

Our approach: Take the Revs to win at the value price, add Carles Gil anytime, and stack BTTS No for the fade on Philly’s stalling attack.<\/p>\n

Odds correct at the time of writing. Please gamble responsibly.<\/small><\/p>\n\n

Season Form & Standings<\/h2>\n

The conference table looks like a mismatch. New England are second on 19 points, just four behind Nashville. Philadelphia are last on six points, with one win and seven defeats. Yet Philly drew 0-0 against East leaders Nashville at home in their last outing \u2014 a reminder that the head-to-head record didn’t appear from nowhere.<\/p>\n
