Betting on Chicago Fire
Chicago Fire is off to a much more promising start than in the last edition of this competition, where they finished in twelfth place in the Eastern Conference, nine points away from the playoff spots.
Currently, they sit in sixth place in the standings with nine points earned in six matches, but their best form has been seen in recent weeks as they remain unbeaten in the last four MLS games, alternating between wins and draws in those matches.
Furthermore, they have yet to lose in the four games they have played at home, but three of them ended in a tie.
Possible Lineup (4-3-3): Sean Johnson; Richie Laryea, Matt Hedges, Sigurd Rosted, Raoul Petretta; Brandon Servania, Michael Bradley, Mark Kaye; Federico Bernardeschi, Deandre Kerr, Jonathan Osorio.
Betting on Philadelphia Union
The Philadelphia Union has had a rough start to the 2023 season, currently sitting in 10th place in the Eastern Conference with only seven points earned. This is a far cry from their performance last year, which saw them make it to the finals and finish in first place in their conference during the regular season.
Their upcoming trip comes on the heels of a 1-0 loss to Cincinnati, marking their fourth game without a win (three losses and one draw). One of the biggest concerns is their poor performance on the road, having lost all three away games so far. This is not a good sign for their upcoming away match.
Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1): Brad Guzan; Brooks Lennon, Miles Robinson, Juan José Sanchez Purata, Caleb Wiley; Amar Sejdic, Matheus Rossetto; Luiz Araújo, Thiago Almada, Derick Burckley Etienne; Georgios Giakoumakis.
JefeBet Prediction
These teams already faced off this season, with Philadelphia taking the win by a slim margin, but they had the advantage of playing at home. Now they’ll have to travel to Soldier Field, a venue where they haven’t won in their last two visits.
Considering the visiting team’s poor form and the good momentum that Chicago Fire has shown, it’s expected that the locals will get a good result in this MLS Matchday 8 game. So, if you’re into sports betting, betting on Chicago Fire could be a smart move. Get ready to witness some exciting soccer action in this Chicago Fire FC vs Philadelphia Union match!
