The Revolution will travel to Florida for their first-ever game against Orlando City SC, Friday. They enter the match on a seven-game unbeaten run, sitting atop the Supporters Shield standings.

The saying is that numbers never lie, and these are some of the important numbers to be looking at ahead of the Revolution-Orlando City SC game.

7 – The New England Revolution are currently on a seven-game unbeaten run, the longest in MLS. They are 5-0-2 over that time.

13 – The Revs are unbeaten in their last 13 home matches, dating back to last season. They are 10-0-3 over that time.

1.89 – Average points collected per game by the Revs. Good for 2nd in MLS.
