FC Cincinnati welcome the Philadelphia Union to TQL Stadium on Saturday in a clash that has all the makings of a blockbuster, with the Eastern Conference race tightening and the postseason looming large.<\/p>\n
Cincinnati head into the showdown sitting second in the East but under pressure after three straight home defeats, where goals have dried up \u2014 just one scored in that stretch \u2014 while their backline has leaked four.<\/p>\n
Philadelphia, on the other hand, have hit their stride at just the right time. Jim Curtin\u2019s men have dropped only once in their last six MLS games, averaging two goals a night while giving up barely one per match. Stretching the view wider, the Union have fallen just three times in their last 20 outings in all competitions, a run that has propelled them to the top of both the conference and the league overall.<\/p>\n
