Reasons to Watch: Battle atop the east, Parley, Kids Day

Two of the better teams in the Eastern Conference go head-to-head in an afternoon match in early spring -- and then you get 90 more minutes of soccer for no extra charge! Not a bad Saturday at all, Union fans.

First Montreal Impact, fresh off a 1-0 win over Columbus Crew and two suffocating 0-0 road draws with NYCFC and DC United, enter Talen Energy Stadium with eyes on the top of the east. If DC United and Columbus falter this weekend, the Impact could be tied atop the conference with a win. Ever since giving up seven goals to Sporting KC, Montreal has turtled to great effect on the road and Philly will need to punch through early to do damage against Remi Garde's side.
