Expect a thrilling atmosphere at Soldier Field when Chicago Fire and Charlotte FC go head-to-head on Sunday morning with both sides chasing important points. Chicago will be eager to respond after suffering back-to-back defeats to Inter Miami and New York City, but they remain one of the most entertaining teams in MLS. The fourth-placed Fire have scored 2.2 goals per game across their last ten matches and have seen both teams score in 80% of those fixtures. However, defensive problems remain a concern, with Franco and Mbokazi unavailable due to injuries.
Charlotte, meanwhile, travel to Chicago full of confidence after securing a valuable 2-0 victory over New York Red Bulls. The Crown are fighting to stay inside the playoff places and have shown signs of improvement, losing just one of their last four matches. Aron John is expected to be the only absentee, leaving Charlotte with a relatively healthy squad. However, their away form remains inconsistent, with only one victory from their last four road games. Considering both teams' attacking approach and recent defensive issues, goals should be expected at Soldier Field.
As Chicago have been strong going forward and are looking to bounce back after two consecutive defeats, Home Win should be considered, alongside BTTS and Over 2.5 goals (Seven of the last eight meetings between these teams went over the 2.5-goal line, showing this matchup usually delivers entertainment).
This MLS match will be played on Sunday 2 August 2026 at 01:30.
