DC United vs New England Revolution prediction, preview, team news and more | MLS 2020
The MLS is back in action tomorrow as DC United hosts the New England Revolution in what promises to be an exciting regular-season MLS fixture. Both DC United and the New England Revolution have struggled to meet expectations this season and will want to make amends tomorrow.
The New England Revolution is currently in ninth place in the MLS table. The Revs managed two draws in their last two games and need to pick up a victory in this fixture to move further up the table.
DC United, on the other hand, is placed precariously close to the bottom of the table at the moment. The eleventh-placed side has experienced a minor upsurge in recent weeks and will have to find some consistency to improve its standing in the MLS table.
