Prediction: 2-2
Chicago Fire
Following back-to-back defeats to the likes of Philadelphia Union and Colorado Rapids, Vancouver Whitecaps will be looking to return to winning ways when they welcome Chicago Fire at their BC Place Stadium. Vancouver Whitecaps are likely to leave their hearts on the field in Sunday’s football match, but they should be happy with one point from the game as well. Veljko Paunovic’s men, on the other hand, recorded a 3-2 win over New York City in their last league fixture, with the team putting an end to their three-game winless run in MLS. Chicago Fire aim to regain their place in top six, but beating Vancouver Whitecaps on the road is easier said than done. Seeing that Veljko Paunovic’s team recorded only one win in previous six away games, we predict that the two teams are going to share the spoils at BC Place Stadium this weekend.
Highlighted Player (Kendall Waston):
Kendall Waston is yet another Costa Rican footballer who plays in MLS. The Vancouver Whitecaps centre back started his senior career at Sarprissa of Costa Rica and he played for the likes of Carmelita, Nacional, Bayamon, UCR and Perez Zeledon (on loan) in the past as well.
Waston moved to MLS in the summer of 2014, signing a deal with Vancouver Whitecaps. The Costa Rica international scored only two goals in 11 appearances for the club in the 2014 season, but the club chiefs decided to keep hold of him. He found the net twice in 30 league games in the 2015 MLS campaign, while scoring three goals in his last season with the Canadian club.
Kendall Waston was born in San Jose, Costa Rica on January 1, 1988 and he made his debut for the Costa Rica national team in May, 2013 in a match against Canada. The Vancouver Whitecaps forward scored his first goal for los Ticos on December 16, 2015 in a 1-0 victory over Nicaragua.
