PDO emulate off, binding same value multiple times - php

Question

I have the following bit of code in PHP7. I'm using PDO to connect to MySQL.
With PDO prepared statements emulation on, this code works successful:
$query = $db_con->prepare('SELECT * FROM matches WHERE matches.home_team_id=:team_id OR matches.away_team_id=:team_id');
$query->bindValue(':team_id', $team_id, PDO::PARAM_STR);
$query->execute();
return $query->fetchAll();
But with true PDO prepared statements (emulation off), the previous code gives an error that not enough values were bound. I'm forced to do the following:
$query = $db_con->prepare('SELECT * FROM matches WHERE matches.home_team_id=:team_id OR matches.away_team_id=:team_id2');
$query->bindValue(':team_id', $team_id, PDO::PARAM_STR);
$query->bindValue(':team_id2', $team_id, PDO::PARAM_STR);
$query->execute();
return $query->fetchAll();
This works, but is there any way I don't have to declare the same variable twice with true prepared statements? I have a lot of these queries, and would like to replace them all to use true prepared statements.
As someone asked in the comments: why do I want emulation off? I didn't really have a preference, but now it seems that true prepared statements are more strict than emulated statements. Is my understanding correct that is is better to develop with true prepared statements to guarantee it will work with both settings?

Answer 1

There is a way by change the query
$query=$db_con->prepare('SELECT*FROM matches WHERE :team_id in(home_team_id,away_team_id)');
$query->bindValue(':team_id', $team_id, PDO::PARAM_STR);
$query->execute();
This may not desirable, but it declare variable at once for case.
Hope this helpful.

A simple solution is to use a counter. In that way you can keep emulation off and still bind the same value multiple times without the need to count how many times you've used it, or renumber when you change the query.
$count=0;
$query = $db_con->prepare(
'SELECT * FROM matches WHERE
matches.home_team_id=:team_id'.(++$count).' OR
matches.away_team_id=:team_id'.(++$count)
);
for($i=1; $i<($count+1) ;++$i){
$query->bindValue(':team_id'.$i, $team_id, PDO::PARAM_STR);
}
$query->execute();
return $query->fetchAll();
