D.C. United will be hoping to finish the weekend at the top of the East as they travel to face New England on Saturday night.

Ben Olsen’s side are second with 24 points, level with conference leaders, Philadelphia Union. D.C. (7-4-3) head into the weekend winless in two games and are coming off a 2-1 loss away to the Houston Dynamo.

New England (3-8-3) are 11th with 12 points at the bottom of the East and have one win in six games after their goalless tie away to the Montreal Impact last weekend.

In 2018 the sides met twice with a 2-0 win for D.C. at home, while the Revs picked up a 3-2 win at Gillette Stadium.

Isaac Angking remains sidelined and is the only injury for the Revs coming into the weekend.

Olsen will be without Oniel Fisher, Joseph Mora, and Donovan Pines who continue to be missing this weekend with injuries while Chris Durkin is away for the U20 World Cup in Poland.

Kickoff is at 7:30 p.m. ET. on Saturday night at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough. The game will be streamed in Canada on DAZN, and will be shown in the U.S. on NBC Sports Boston, FloFC in the D.C. region, and on ESPN+.
