All eyes will be on Inter&Co Stadium as Orlando City take on high-flying Chicago Fire in an eagerly-awaited MLS clash. Orlando played out a 1-1 draw with Cincinnati at the weekend and remain focused on closing the gap to the playoff places. The Lions have been difficult to predict lately, winning four of their last 10 matches, while their games have averaged 3.70 goals. BTTS has landed in 80% of those outings. Summer signing Antoine Griezmann should keep his place in the starting XI, although Bernardo Rhein is doubtful after picking up a knock.
Chicago, meanwhile, are enjoying a superb run of form, winning five consecutive matches in all competitions and sitting third in the Eastern Conference. The Fire have won eight of their last 10 games, scoring 2.10 goals per match on average. Robert Lewandowski will lead the line, while Franco and Mbokazi are unavailable through injury. The H2H meetings have also produced plenty of goals, with BTTS landing in 65% of the previous 23 encounters.
As Chicago look unstoppable at the moment with Robert Lewandowski up front, Away Win should be considered, alongside BTTS and Over 2.5 goals (strong scoring numbers point towards goals).
This MLS match will be played on Thursday 20 August 2026 at 00:30.
