Red Bull New York II will welcome Philadelphia Union II to Harrison on Sunday, June 28, for a pivotal Eastern Conference showdown. The match is scheduled to kick off at 7 p.m. Eastern Time and will be streamed live on OneFootball and MLSNEXTPRO.com, giving fans across the continent a chance to follow the action.
New York II sit third in the conference with 28 points, a position that reflects a strong start to the season, while Philadelphia Union II occupy 11th place with 21 points, a spot that has been marked by inconsistency.
The Red Bulls’ recent form has been particularly impressive; just last week they crushed Toronto FC II 5‑0 at MSU Soccer Park, a result that featured a debut goal from defender Joshua Munson and a first‑team appearance for forward Sean Baitinger.
Recent form and historic matchups
Philadelphia, meanwhile, dropped two of their last three away fixtures but managed a 2‑1 victory over Orlando City B on June 21, a result that could boost confidence as they head into the New Jersey clash.
The two sides have met twice already this season, splitting the results: a penalty shootout win for the Union on March 22 at MSU Soccer Park, followed by a 2‑1 triumph for the Red Bulls at Subaru Park on May 3.
Through ten all‑time encounters, New York hold a 3‑4‑3 record against Philadelphia, a statistic that adds an extra layer of intrigue to Sunday’s encounter.
Mijahir Jiménez has emerged as the most prolific scorer against Philadelphia among the current roster, having netted three goals in previous meetings, while Benny Rodriguez’s brace earlier in the season highlighted the attacking depth of the Red Bulls.
After this weekend’s fixture, the Red Bulls II will travel to face FC Cincinnati 2 on July 5, a match that will also be broadcast on the same platforms.
Kickoff for that future meeting is set for 6 p.m. ET, continuing the league’s weekend double‑header format and underscoring the rapid progression of these young squads.
