D.C. United has not lost an MLS regular season match since August but hasn’t won an MLS regular season away game since May.
Two explanations are necessary: United has played almost exclusively at home since late last summer and, on those rare occasions when it has had to leave its comfort zone, good fortune has not followed.
But in this season of great promise — and of normal scheduling — United believes it’s better equipped to handle the rigors of the road, starting Sunday afternoon at Yankee Stadium against New York City FC.
