The New England Revolution have set the stage for a high‑stakes first‑round MLS playoff clash with the Philadelphia Union. The best‑of‑three series will begin on Saturday, November 21, with the Union hosting the Revolution at 2 p.m. at Gillette Stadium. The return leg follows a week later on Saturday, November 28, with New England taking the field in Philadelphia at 4:30 p.m. A decisive third match, should it be required, is slated for Wednesday, December 2, with the Union back at home; the exact kickoff time remains to be announced.
This matchup carries extra intrigue given the Revolution’s 2‑0 advantage over Philadelphia during the regular season, including two 2‑1 victories that snapped the Union’s 15‑game unbeaten run in late October. The Union’s roster features 17‑year‑old midfielder Cavan Sullivan, a rising star who has drawn attention across the league. Meanwhile, the Revolution have emerged from a dramatic turnaround under first‑year coach Marko Mitrovic, who steered the club from an 11th‑place finish last season to an 18‑12‑4 record this year.
All games in the series will be available for streaming on Apple TV, allowing fans to follow every moment of the contest. As the playoffs loom, both teams will be sharpening their tactics and conditioning in preparation for a series that could prove pivotal for their postseason ambitions.
