Score Prediction:
This is an interesting matchup because both teams are evenly matched, but one of them is on the rise: the Philadelphia Union.
While the Union struggled early in the season, a coaching change and Sullivan’s emergence in a key role have sparked a remarkable turnaround, bringing the team within reach of the playoff spots.
However, Toronto have achieved something very difficult: solidity in midfield, which should make the battle in the middle of the park an interesting one.
Still, in this case, there are two possible outcomes: I imagine a draw or a victory for the Union.
Score Prediction: Toronto FC 1-2 or 1-1 Philadelphia Union
