Our prediction for this MLS match:
Chicago Fire play host to Charlotte at their Soldier Field in what is expected to be an interesting Major League Soccer game. Chicago Fire aim to make amends for back-to-back defeats to Nashville SC and Philadelphia Union and they are likely to fight tooth and nail against Charlotte. Goalkeeper Chris Brady is still on international duty with USA, while both Christopher Cupps and David Poreba remain in the recovery room.
Charlotte, on the other hand, failed to impress in back-to-back defeats to Philadelphia Union and Sporting Kansas City and given their difficulties on the road, we predict that Chicago Fire are going to emerge triumphant in Sunday’s clash. Both Patrick Agyemang and Nathan Byrne are sidelined with injuries, while Tim Ream is representing the Yanks at the 2025 Gold Cup. In their last meeting at the venue, Charlotte defeated Chicago Fire 1-0, meaning that the hosts are hungry for revenge.
