Prediction: The Philadelphia Union, currently in ninth, are in a virtual must-win game against fifth place team Chicago Fire Soccer Club*. With a win, the Union will be back in contention for a wild card with two games in hand on the fifth place team. With a loss, they will be 13 points behind D.C. United for the fifth place spot. If the Union have playoff aspirations, a win here is almost necessary. I think the Union find away to stay remotely alive. Union win 2-1.

*Yes, that is their real official full name. They are also the only team in MLS to have the phrase "Soccer Club" at the end of their team name. Trivia!
