Vancouver Whitecaps vs Philadelphia Union Preview and Team News

Vancouver Whitecaps Team News

The Vancouver Whitecaps clinched a dramatic injury-time victory over St. Louis City in the last round (3-2). The hosts were trailing 1-2, and after Daniel Ríos equalized, it was the former Bayern legend Thomas Müller who scored from the penalty kick in the 104th minute. 

The result leaves the Whitecaps in third place in the Western Conference. Jesper Sørensen’s men have two games in hand, and a win would move them within a single point of the leaders, San Diego.

In the upcoming clash, three players will be unavailable. Ranko Veselinovic, Ryan Gauld, and Sam Adekugbe are all out with injuries. 

Vancouver Whitecaps predicted lineup vs Philadelphia Union (4-2-3-1): Takaoka; Ocampo, Halbouni, Blackmon, Laborda; Berhalter, Cubas; Sabbi, Müller, Nelson; White.

Philadelphia Union Team News

Philadelphia made it two wins in a row with a narrow 0-1 away victory over Cincinnati. Uruguayan forward Bruno Damiani opened the score before Olwethu Makhanya was sent off, but the visitors held on to the advantage and claimed all three points.

The Union currently sit at the top of the Eastern Conference table with 57 points. However, Inter Miami, who have four games in hand, are 11 points behind.

The previously mentioned centre-back, Makhanya, will be suspended for the upcoming fixture. Starting goalkeeper Andre Blake is also sidelined with an injury, while Benjamin Bender’s participation is doubtful.

Philadelphia Union predicted lineup vs Vancouver Whitecaps (4-4-2): Rick; Wagner, Westfield, Glesnes, Harriel; Iloski, Jean Jacques, Lukic, Sullivan; Damiani, Baribo.

Vancouver Whitecaps vs Philadelphia Union Prediction, Odds

In one of the most anticipated events this weekend, we’ll see two strong teams facing each other. Recently, they’ve had mostly identical results, but given that the Whitecaps are playing at home, they hold a slight advantage.

Out of the last five head-to-head meetings, Vancouver have won two, drawn two, and lost one. Even more impressive, they’ve dropped just one of their previous 13 matches at BC Place

We’re expecting a tense and competitive contest. It could go either way, but we believe the hosts should be able to edge out their opposition.

Vancouver Whitecaps vs Philadelphia Union Betting Tip

Neither side can claim to have a strong defensive stronghold. This season, the hosts have conceded an average of 1.14 goals per game, while the visitors have allowed 0.89. 

An exchange of goals has been a common trend in their head-to-heads. In fact, both teams have found the back of the net in three of their last six encounters – a tally that might increase this weekend. 

It will also be exciting to see a duel between Philadelphia’s Tai Baribo (16 goals) and Vancouver’s Brian White (14). Thomas Müller, with his experience, will also be an asset.
