Analysis Chicago

The home team comes to this stage of the MLS (Regular Season) after a home win by (2‑1) against DC United. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 6 draws and 6 losses in away matches, with 18 goals scored and 24 conceded; against 9 wins, 2 draws and 4 losses at their stadium, with 31 goals scored and 18 conceded. In the last 9 home league matches Chicago Fire has a record of 5 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses, so they have won 16 points out of 27 possible. The most recurrent result at half‑time in their home league matches was the 2‑0 (4 out of 9 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their home matches there is a tendency for goals, since 9 of the last 9 matches for this competition have ended with Over 1,5 goals. In 17 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 8 times and have never been able to turn the score around. there is 1 period that stands out in the last 10 home matches for all competitions: they have scored 7 of their 16 goals between minutes (0'‑15').

Chicago Fire will face a very complicated opponent and that will make its mission much more difficult. On the other hand, it plays at its home field and this forces the team to have a different posture. Thus, they have to put together a game plan that gives it security in defense and quality and efficiency from the middle onward. If it can show this on the pitch, they will have a better chance of securing the three points.


Confirmed Lineup: Bobby Shuttleworth, Wyatt Omsberg, Boris Sekulić, M. Pineda, Francisco Calvo, Ignacio Aliseda, Fabian Herbers, Medrán, Jonathan Bornstein, Robert Berić, Charles Sapong.
