- Philadelphia Union are unbeaten in their last 11 games across all competitions.
- Charlotte FC have lost 8 of their 17 MLS games this season.

Philadelphia Union have been one of the standout sides in Major League Soccer this season. With 34 points from 17 matches, they currently top the Eastern Conference, four points clear of their nearest challengers. Despite some recent absences due to international duty and injuries, the Union remain a formidable unit, led by in-form striker Tai Baribo, who has netted 13 goals this season. Their recent performances include a gritty 2-1 win over Toronto FC and a goalless draw against FC Dallas. Importantly, Philadelphia average 2.22 goals scored per game, reflecting their attacking prowess, while conceding just 1.22—proof of their balance across the pitch.
Defensively, Philadelphia continue to look solid even without several key players. Their nine-match unbeaten league streak includes results against strong Eastern opponents, and they’ve scored in 78% of their matches with more than 2.5 goals in 78% of outings. The energy of players like Wagner and Lukic, combined with strong home support at Subaru Park, make the Union favorites to maintain momentum. Historically, they’ve dominated Charlotte at home and will look to exploit the visitors’ inconsistency on the road.
Charlotte FC enter this match with hopes of breaking into the top seven, sitting eighth with 25 points. They’ve shown flashes of quality most notably their recent 2-0 win away at Toronto FC—but have struggled with consistency throughout the campaign. Their record of eight wins and eight losses sums up a turbulent first half of the season. The Crown have also been vulnerable defensively, conceding an average of 2 goals per game. Despite a talented attacking trio including Pep Biel, Wilfried Zaha, and Liel Abada, Charlotte’s midfield has often failed to protect the backline, especially in away fixtures.
Coach Dean Smith will again be without key contributors such as Patrick Agyemang and Tim Ream. With limited attacking options and ongoing issues in central defense, Charlotte will likely rely on counterattacks and individual brilliance. Their xG remains solid, but the team struggles to maintain structure over 90 minutes. Having lost three of their last five games, and with a shaky away record, it’s tough to see them toppling a confident and clinical Philadelphia side at Subaru Park. Expect goals and attacking intent, but ultimately, the home side should prevail.
MLS Predictions like this one highlight why form, statistics, and squad depth matter more than ever during the summer stretch of the season.
Philadelphia Union to win is a logical choice based on current form and statistical superiority. The Union are on a nine-match unbeaten streak in MLS and 11 games across all competitions, boasting a +1.00 goal differential per match. Their offensive output is among the league's best, averaging 2.22 goals per game, while conceding just 1.22. In contrast, Charlotte have allowed 2 goals per match and struggled for consistency, losing 8 of their 17 games. Missing key forward Patrick Agyemang, Charlotte’s attacking edge is diminished. Meanwhile, Philadelphia have won three of their last four meetings with Charlotte and remain especially dominant at home. Even with some players out on international duty, the Union's depth—highlighted by Tai Baribo’s 13-goal haul—should be too much for Charlotte’s leaky defense. The home side's high scoring rate and defensive discipline, combined with Charlotte’s inconsistency on the road, make this a strong value pick.
