What to Know?

It all comes down to this. With a win and three points, D.C. United's playoff hopes last until MLS Decision Day on October 21. Anything less, and the 2023 regular season is over.

For the majority of 2023, the Black-and-Red have flirted with the playoff line, trading places up and down the table with other playoff hopeful teams after each match.

The 2023 season hasn't been without its standouts that helped the team get to this place. Christian Benteke, who in his first full season in MLS, has scored 14 goals in his 31 matches played.

21-year-old Ted Ku-DiPietro has enjoyed a breakout season as he has scored five goals in just over 1,000 minutes of MLS action. With one more goal, Ku-DiPietro would pass teammate Andy Najar for most goals scored by a D.C. United rookie.

Newcomer Mateusz Klich has been a mainstay in the D.C. United midfield since arriving in the nation's capital. Klich leads the squad with seven assists, but also added three goals of his own.
