The Philadelphia Union came into their matchup with Orlando City on Saturday night having won four straight matches, outscoring their opponents 18 to 1 in that stretch. The wins came over D.C. United, Colorado Rapids, Atlanta United, and New York Red Bulls. And while New York is universally seen as a threat in the Eastern Conference, the rest of those wins came over teams positioned in the bottom half of the table, and fans around the league may have wondered if the Union were benefiting from lesser opponents and if their lopsided score lines were simply a result of that.
