Philadelphia Union II is back at Subaru Park taking on Toronto FC II in a potential playoff preview on Wednesday night. Fans can get last minute tickets here or watch with MLS Season Pass on Apple TV.

The Boys in Blue enter the match facing adversity for the first time in their 2025 season after suffering back-to-back shutout losses on the road to New York Red Buls II and Chicago Fire II. After a tough setback on Monday against first place New York, Philly were dominant against the Fire but were unable to get one of their seven shots on target past their standout keeper. The losses marked the first time that they club had failed to claim a point in two matches and the Boys in Blue will be eager to snap that streak.

Wednesday's match could be what they need as they look for a repeat performance against the Canadian side from their July matchup. Union II racked up a 5-0 victory over Toronto FC II with Markus Anderson finding the back of the net in the first half before the Boys in Blue poured it on with goals from CJ Olney, David Vazquez and a brace from Malik Jakupovic.

Toronto sits in seventh place in the Eastern Conference, with a two-point cushion ahead of the last playoff spot. August has seen the Canadian side pick up two wins in three matches including a 1-0 clean sheet against FC Cincinnati 2 last Friday. Forward Hassan Ayari leads the way for the side with six goals and three assists in 21 appearances.
