We said: Philadelphia Union 3-1 Toronto

It is no secret that the Reds have been poor defensively throughout the campaign, and that has been especially evident away from home, where they have conceded multiple goals on 11 occasions this year. The Union are not as bad on the back end as their previous match might indicate, and we anticipate them to be a lot stingier on Sunday, while Curtin has numerous scoring options who are capable of finding the back of the net at any moment.
