Minnesota Utd vs. Dallas (Saturday, 8.30pm)
Two teams currently occupying play-off positions in the Major League Soccer Western Conference will meet on Saturday when Dallas travels to face Minnesota United.
The visitors have failed to win in their previous two outings, while the hosts will also be looking to bounce back from a defeat in their most recent match.
We say: Minnesota United 2-1 Dallas
Minnesota United will want to get straight back to winning way this weekend, and considering the fact Dallas are out of form right now, they will see this as the ideal game to do so.
The home form of Heath's team is one of the most impressive in the division, and that should be enough to help them secure three points this weekend.

Columbus Crew vs. Chicago Fire (Saturday, 10.30pm)
Currently in their best form since winning the title in 2020, the Columbus Crew have a chance to stretch their unbeaten run to six matches when they welcome the Chicago Fire to Lower.com Field on Saturday.
Columbus have only lost one of their last six MLS matches played at home, while the Fire are quickly fading out of the playoff picture, going winless in their previous four games.
We say: Columbus Crew 1-0 Chicago Fire
Columbus have as much momentum heading into this encounter as one could hope for, while the Fire seem to have lost all of theirs, not to mention the fact that several key players seem to be playing hurt for them which has impacted their performances of late.
The Fire have failed to find the back of the net in their last three visits to Columbus, and they have not been consistently sharp in the final third all season.

NY Red Bulls vs. Philadelphia (Sunday, 12.00am)
The deadliest attacking unit in Major League Soccer have a chance to move past Los Angeles FC for the Supporters' Shield lead with a win or a draw on the road this weekend, as the Philadelphia Union face the New York Red Bulls on Saturday at Red Bull Arena.
New York extended its unbeaten run to four straight matches by blanking CF Montreal 1-0 in midweek, while Philly won convincingly once again, 4-1 versus Atlanta United.
We say: New York Red Bulls 0-1 Philadelphia Union
What seems to be forgotten in everything that the Union have achieved lately is the fact that this is still perhaps the most formidable defensive unit in MLS.
We believe that will make the difference against a Red Bulls side who are equally solid along the backline but might not be able to match the scoring depth of Philadelphia.

Cincinnati vs. Charlotte FC (Sunday, 12.30am)
Two teams in the bottom half of the Major League Soccer Eastern Conference meet this weekend as FC Cincinnati welcome Charlotte FC to the TQL Stadium.
The visitors are currently 12th in the division, meanwhile the hosts are undefeated in their previous six matches.
We say: FC Cincinnati 2-0 Charlotte FC
FC Cincinnati have been brilliant recently in putting together an undefeated run of six games, and as they try to push for the playoff positions that is the form they need.
Stepping up to secure three points is something that could take place in this one, with Charlotte being one of the weaker teams throughout the season so far.

Nashville vs. Austin (Sunday, 1.30am)
Nashville SC will be seeking to make it four wins on the bounce in the MLS when they go head to head with Austin FC at the GEODIS Park on Saturday.
This will be the first meeting between the sides since May 2021, when the Tennessee outfit claimed a slender 1-0 victory courtesy of Randall Leal's first-half strike.
We say: Nashville SC 2-2 Austin FC
Nashville appear to have hit their stride at the attacking end of the pitch, where they have scored 11 goals in their last three games. However, they go up against an Austin side that boasts the league's second-best attacking record. We predict a high-scoring and end-to-end contest at the GEODIS Park with both sides settling for a share of the spoils.
