With the Concacaf Champions League on pause until late summer, the Philadelphia Union turns their attention completely to the MLS slate. After a narrow 1-0 victory last weekend against the New York Red Bulls, Jim Curtin’s side will head to the Capitol to play DC United on Sunday.
DC United have struggled in the first weeks of Hernan Losada’s tenure, with injuries plaguing more than a third of the team since preseason began. Typical starters such as defender Steve Birnbaum, goalkeeper Bill Hamid and Yordy Reyna have all yet to appear in a match this season.
