We reckon that The U seem likely to make use of a 4-4-2 system using Andre Blake, Francis Westfield, Olwethu Makhanya, Jakob Glesnes, Kai Wagner, Quinn Sullivan, Danley Jean Jacques, Jovan Lukic, Indiana Vassilev, Tai Baribo and Chris Donovan.
🔮 Prediction
It’s looking like Philadelphia Union and CF Montreal should both get enough opportunities to score, although it’s hard to separate the two.
Little in this one, and it’s almost too close to call. We therefore think that it’s going to be a very even match with a score draw at the conclusion of the game.
