Prediction: 1-2
Chicago Fire
Cincinnati and Chicago Fire square off against each other at TQL Stadium on Thursday morning. Cincinnati are stuck at the bottom of the table, and given their seven-game losing run, we do not believe that there is a big value in betting on the home team. Defender Maikel van der Werff should be the only absentee in the home team. Chicago Fire, on the other hand, head into the match following a 2-2 draw with Eastern Conference leaders New England.
Even though Frank Klopas’ troops have been having their ups and downs of late, away win should be considered as Cincinnati have been totally out of form of late. Both Sekulic and Teran miss out with injuries for the visiting team, while Germany international Kronholm is a major doubt. In their last meeting in the Major League Soccer Cincinnati defeated Chicago, meaning that the visitor are hungry for revenge.
Highlighted Player (Haris Medunjanin):
After spending four seasons at AZ Alkmaar, Haris Medunjanin joined Spanish side Valladolid and he appeared in 42 league games for Pucela. The Bosnian midfielder played for the likes of Sparta Rotterdam, Maccabi Tel Aviv and Gaziantepspor in the past as well and in 2014 he returned to Spain, signing a contract with La Liga side Deportivo La Coruna.
Medunjanin scored two goals in 24 league appearances for the Galician outfit and in 2016 he joined his former club Maccabi Tel Aviv on a one-and-a-half-year deal. The left-footed footballer, who was born on March 8, 1985 won two European Championship titles with Netherlands U-21 team (2006, 2007), but he decided to represent Bosnian and Herzegovina on senior level.
He made his first start for the Balkan Dragons in a 1-0 loss to Portugal in the 2010 FIFA World Cup play-off match. Haris Medunjanin currently plays for Philadelphia Union and his contract with the MLS club expires on January 31, 2017.
