Defence Force vs Philadelphia Union prediction
Coming out of Trinidad and Tobago, Defence Force qualified for the tournament as a result of finishing third in the 2025 Caribbean Cup. Under the management of Marvin Gordon, they are the Trinidadian champions.
They now face a Philadelphia Union side that were Supporters’ Shield winners in the 2025 Major League Soccer campaign and the Pennsylvanians will be expected to go deep into this season’s CONCACAF Champions Cup.
Philly will have to be wary of the difficulty of going away from home in CONCACAF competition but they should still win this one quite comfortably.
