Philadelphia Union vs Seattle Sounders Prediction & Betting Tips (1 May)

Seattle Sounders have collected just two points from a possible 24 on the road of late, whilst they have failed to score more than a single goal in 14 consecutive top-flight trips. Philadelphia Union, on the other hand, clearly know what they are doing on their own patch, winning six of their last seven league fixtures and outscoring their opponents by 19 goals to three across these wins.

High-flying Philadelphia Union don’t tend to be involved in too many thrillers, with 15 of their previous 20 home matches in the MLS serving up under 2.5 goals. This is a state of affairs that Seattle Sounders have become familiar with in recent away games, as six of their last nine top-flight trips have also fallen into this same low-scoring category.

Over the course of their previous 18 matches at this elite level of the MLS, Philadelphia Union have been involved in no fewer than 14 contests in which at least one of the two goalkeepers has emerged with a clean sheet. This has also been the case in 16 of the last 19 Seattle Sounders away games in the top-flight, so don’t expect the net to bulge at both ends in this encounter.
