Philadelphia Union v Columbus Crew : Major League Soccer match betting preview, prediction and odds

Sun 11th May, 00:30 BST, Subaru Park, Chester

Philadelphia Union are in Major League Soccer action on Sunday morning, as Bradley Wellmen looks to get one over on Wilfried Nancy and his Columbus Crew side at the Subaru Park. We've got odds from the UK's biggest bookmakers for 17 different betting markets plus predictions, stats and head to head (H2H) data for both teams. Simply click through the tabs below to explore.


Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

We think it's unlikely that this game will have 4 goals or more, and the odds and stats point in the same direction as KO's predictive algorithm on this one. Philadelphia and Columbus have rarely served up thrillers of late, whether that be in Major League Soccer individually or in head-to-head clashes. So, without a strong favourite win or double chance market, we're recommending under 3.5 goals. You can go for that at a best price of 1.33.
