The Union are in first place in Major League Soccer's Eastern Conference, and they have two games in hand on the two teams directly behind them.
Despite this advantage, coach Jim Curtin isn't approaching the next few games on the road as if the Union are playing with house money. With so much parity, Curtin said that the Union have to keep pushing in their next three games before having a 16-day break while the Copa America Tournament begins.
At 5-3-3 for 18 points, the Union are a point ahead of New York City FC and two ahead of the New York Red Bulls.
