- The teams are meeting for the third time this season, and the Revolution have won the first two, both on the road. Teal Bunbury set up the tying goal then scored the game-winner, both in the second half, hauling the Revolution back for a 2-1 win April 19 at PPL Park. Diego Fagundez scored the game’s lone goal in New England’s Aug. 29 victory in Chester.
- The road team has now won each of the last four league meetings between the clubs. The Revolution won 5-3 last May 17 at PPL Park; Union returned the favor with a 3-1 win at Gillette Stadium on June 28.
