Philadelphia Union

The hosts remain without the services of Cory Burke, who is said to be recovering from a knock. Jack de Vries has also been ruled out with a concussion.

Jim Curtin is expected to field the same starting XI that held Columbus Crew to a goalless draw in the season's opening fixture.

Ilsinho has resumed training but it is expected that Curtin will not involve him in matches just yet. At most, he might make an appearance from the bench.
