The long-awaited MLS clash between D.C. United and New England Revolution takes place on 2025-05-29. Kick-off is scheduled for 01:30 CEST en Italie, en Allemagne, en France et en Espagne, et 00:30 BST in the UK. Fans across Europe can tune in late Wednesday night/early Thursday morning for what promises to be a pivotal fixture in the race for a playoff spot.
Both sides know the value of three points at Audi Field. D.C. United will look to bounce back after a recent setback, while New England Revolution are determined to maintain momentum in their fight for a top-seven finish and a berth in the MLS Cup Playoffs.
Comment les deux équipes abordent-elles ce match ?
D.C. United have endured mixed form of late, most recently suffering a 2-0 defeat to New York Red Bulls. That loss highlighted defensive inconsistencies and a lack of firepower up front; Christian Benteke remains sidelined, joining Dominique Badji et Lukas MacNaughton in the treatment room. Head coach Wayne Rooney will need to reshuffle his cards if his side is to rediscover attacking intensity.
New England Revolution, meanwhile, secured a morale-boosting win last weekend and have been among the most consistent performers over the past four seasons. The Revs claimed nine victories in ten meetings with D.C. United from 2020 to 2023, and they enter this match full of confidence. With playoff qualification on the line, they’re unlikely to settle for anything less than a positive result.
Nos prévisions
Given D.C. United’s injury issues and New England’s strong recent record in this head-to-head fixture, we expect the Revolution to edge this one. The visitors have shown they can exploit weaknesses in D.C.’s back line, particularly when Benteke’s aerial threat is missing.
That said, Audi Field provides a passionate atmosphere, and United will be desperate to make amends in front of home supporters. Our tip is a 1-2 victory for New England Revolution with goals at both ends, and a likely total goal count of over 2.5.
