Back to back
A great reason to check out Wednesday night’s showdown? It’s a preview of Fireworks Night at Talen Energy Stadium this Saturday. Philly and Orlando are going baaaaack to back, and both sides are looking for the upper hand when they meet in Orlando midweek.
Nani stateside
Another great reason to watch is to see Nani and Dom Dwyer go at a strong Union back line. Philly was breached for four goals against NYCFC, but the first two were maaaaybe not the strongest penalties? This is still one of the top units in the league but Orlando has enough firepower to break out at any time.
Fafa the fantastico
How about this for a reason to watch: Last time these clubs met in Orlando, Fafa Picault did this. Yeah, that’s a banger. So get ready for another wild match in the heat as the first place Union take on a revitalized Orlando City SC side on Wednesday night at 7:30 p.m. ET in Orlando on PHL17.
