We said: Philadelphia Union 2-1 Los Angeles FC

Following their impressive comeback against Charlotte, Philadelphia Union return home where they have lost just once across all competitions since the start of April. Los Angeles' form on the road is currently nothing to write home about and we fancy the Union ending their winless run in this fixture.
