Philadelphia Union is set to face Nashville SC in a Sunday afternoon match at Subaru Park, marking the beginning of a two-game homestand. The game will start at 2:25 PM ET and will be broadcast on FOX, MLS Season Pass on Apple TV, and available via the 97.5 The Fanatic app and website.

The starting lineup for Philadelphia Union includes Andre Blake; Kai Wagner, Olwethu Makhanya, Jakob Glesnes, Frankie Westfield; Danley Jean Jacques, Jovan Lukic, Quinn Sullivan, Daniel Gazdag; Mikael Uhre, and Tai Baribo. The bench features Oliver Semmle, Nathan Harriel, Olivier Mbaizo, Jesus Bueno, Alejandro Bedoya, Indiana Vassilev, Cavan Sullivan, Chris Donovan, and Bruno Damiani.

Homegrown defender Frankie Westfield has been included in the matchday roster for the fourth time in his career after signing a short-term agreement to be eligible for selection today. Philadelphia Union is using the same starting XI as their previous three matches. This marks the first time since 2022 that the club has started with the same lineup in four consecutive league matches.

Tai Baribo will make his 30th career appearance in league play during Sunday's match. The Israeli striker currently leads MLS with six goals through three matches—a feat that ties him with Ante Razov's record from 1999. Scoring against Nashville would allow Baribo to match Edison Buddle's accomplishment from 2010.

Goalkeeper Oliver Semmle is making his first appearance on the matchday roster for the team this year.
