Sunday’s Football Bet of the Day sees me head to the MLS, and I’ve highlighted a goals-based selection in one of the fixtures.
⚽️ Philadelphia Union vs Orlando City
🇺🇸 MLS
⏰ Sunday 27 September, 00:30
Goals look on the cards at Subaru Park on Saturday night as in-form Philadelphia Union entertain Orlando City in an all-Eastern Conference match-up.
Ryan Richter’s visitors have scored 50 goals across their opening 26 encounters in the MLS this campaign, with 32 (64%) of them coming across their last 11 matches.
The Union have found the back of the net in each of their past 15 MLS encounters – remarkably scoring 2+ in eight of their past nine and 10 of their previous 12 – and will be confident of continuing their scintillating form in front of goal against an Orlando defence that has conceded an incredible 43 goals across their opening 13 road trips, shipping 2+ goals in 11 (85%) of them.
Martin Perelman’s visitors have scored 46 goals across their opening 26 fixtures in the MLS this campaign, with 23 (50%) of them coming on their travels.
The Lions have found the back of the net in each of their last 14 and 17 of their past 18 matches in the MLS, scoring 2+ goals in 12 (67%) of them – including in each of their previous six and eight of their last nine on their travels – and will look to continue their excellent form in front of goal against a Union backline that has kept just four clean sheets across their past 15 MLS encounters.

Bet of the Day
Philadelphia’s opening 26 MLS contests this term have averaged 3.54 goals per game, with Over 3.5 Goals landing in seven of their past nine and 10 of their previous 14.
Orlando’s opening 13 MLS matches on the road have averaged a staggering 5.08 goals per game, with Over 3.5 Goals paying out in 11 (85%) of them.
These two clubs played out a seven-goal thriller in the reverse fixture in Florida in the middle of May, and I’m expecting another high-scoring encounter with both of these in-form attacks contributing.
- Both Teams to Score & Over 3.5 Goals
- Pays 20/23 (bet365)
