The Philadelphia Union can expand its lead when it visits the Chicago Fire on Wednesday as well as MLS Standing, along with its club-ridden streak.
The 7-0-3 record in its last 10 regular-season matches has taken the best marks (11-3-4, 37 points) in the MLS in the informal midpoint of the schedule. Philadelphia’s all-round quality includes the fourth-fourth goals in the league (34) and the third-larger goal (19) is accepted, which leads to the second best target difference (+15).
The club has been on such a roll that head coach Bradley Carnel did not welcome the League-wide by week at all.
“This is a strange type of rhythm,” Carnell told Philadelphia Inquareer. “You play all this rush of stability, and then you are forced to be out five days. Then you are forced to take four days of training and on the fifth day, you play again.”
Even over time, the Sangh will be without several major players on Wednesday. Tai Bribo, who leads MLS with 13 goals, will recall several more weeks due to a calf injury. Goalkeeper Andre Black, midfielder Quin Sulivan and defender Nathan are on international duty in the Harrial ConcacAF Gold Cup.
The Gold Cup leads to the Chicago goalkeeper Chris Brady, while regularly Philip Jainkenagel and Sam Rogers are suspicious after remembering the last match of the fire with injuries. On 14 June, the high-scoring fire was scored this season for the third time after losing 2–0 to Nashville SC.
Despite the damage to Nashville, the fire (7-6–4, 25 points) is 4–2–0 in its last six regular season matches. Strike Fire started the season with 3–1-1, then struggled through 0-3-3 drought before its latest run of solid results.
Defender Andrew Gutman told CBS Chicago, “There are certainly some growing pain, some ups and downs, but I think as the progression of the season, we have started hitting our strid a little.”
This season is only 1-2-4 in home matches. The union is 5-2–1 on the road.
