Red Bull Arena, Harrison, N.J.
October 18, 2015 (WEEK 33, MLS Game #328)
3 p.m. ET (MLS Live)​
- The Union saw their winless run stretched to two games in their last match, a 3-1 loss to Toronto FC on Oct. 3 at BMO Field that officially eliminated them from playoff contention.
- The teams are meeting for the third time this season in league play, and each has won one on the road. Sacha Kljestan scored one goal and set up another as the Red Bulls took a 3-1 win Aug. 1 at PPL Park; Vincent Nogueira and C.J. Sapong scored goals five minutes apart to lead Union to a 2-0 win May 24 at Red Bull Arena.
- The teams also met in an epic US Open Cup quarterfinal on July 21 at Red Bull Arena. Mike Grella scored for the Red Bulls deep in stoppage time to cancel out an Eric Ayuk goal and eventually send the match to a penalty shootout, in which the Union advanced despite playing 80 minutes a man down.
- The May 24 win was the Union’s first ever in Harrison; the Red Bulls had gone 5-0-1 in their first six home games vs. Philadelphia and also won a US Open Cup match there.
