Chicago Fire
Inter Miami and Chicago Fire face each other in a highly-anticipated MLS game at DRV PNK Stadium. Inter Miami aim to bounce back from a 2-0 loss to New York City, and we are positive that they will go all guns blazing at Chicago Fire. Despite performing below expectations in the 2021 MLS season, Argentina superstar Gonzalo Higuain should continue to lead the line for the hosts, while Fray and Jones remain in the recovery room.
Chicago Fire, on the other hand, aim to build on back-to-back wins over New York Red Bulls and Columbus Crew. Raphael Wicky’s troops continue with their habit of producing much better showings at home than on the travels, and you should bear in mind that they suffered five defeats in the previous six away games. Since Inter Miami are eager to get back on course, home win should be considered. All Navarro, Kronholm, and Aliseda are injured for the visiting team, while Spanish midfielder Medran has been tested positive for coronavirus.
