Betting on Chicago Fire
Chicago Fire has been on a roll lately, working hard to climb up the MLS standings. After a rocky start to the season, Ezra Hendrickson’s team is determined to secure a home win and continue their ascent in the rankings, as they fight to qualify for the next stage of the North American league.
In their last match, the Fire drew goalless at home against DC United. The tie left them in 11th place in the Western Conference standings and, for the time being, out of any classification or playoff zone.
Possible lineup (3-5-2): Chris Brady; Arnaud Souquet, Rafael Czichos, Carlos Teran; Gaston Gimenez, Maren Haile-Selassie, Brian Gutierrez, Jonathan Dean, Kacper Przybyłko; Fabian Herbers, Chris Mueller.
Betting on Minnesota United
Minnesota United is heading into this game as one of the top undefeated teams in the MLS. With 3 wins and 2 draws in their last 5 games, the Loons are one of the most formidable teams so far this season.
In their last game, Adrian Heath’s men managed to add another win to their tally with a narrow away victory over St. Louis City SC. The win put the St Paul team in fourth place in the Western Conference standings with 11 points.
Possible lineup (4-4-2): Dayne St. Louis. The following players are in the squad: St. Clair; D.J. Taylor, Michael Boxall, Miguel Tapias, Kemar Lawrence; Wil Trapp, Kervin Arriaga, Bongokuhle Hlongwane, Franco Fragapane; Ménder García, Luis Amarilla.
JefeBet Prediction
Despite their favorable position in MLS, Minnesota United’s numbers are not abysmally different from those of their opponent this weekend, with a goal difference of only 3 against the Chicago Fire.
There is a good chance that the second city team will be able to get the first win they are longing for in front of their home crowd.
Prediction: Moneyline of Chicago Fire (CHI 1-0 MIN).
