Chicago Fire and DC United are outside the play-in zone, with rather slim chances of entering the postseason. That’s why this match is so important for both clubs. Whoever wins here will maintain at least theoretical chances of entering the playoffs.
Before Betting on Chicago Fire vs. DC United
The Fire is in terrible shape. Counting the League Cup, they have not won for five straight events, with Chicago on the losing side after the final whistle in four of those. To make it even worse, the defense has allowed at least two hits in each event.
When playing at home, the Fire posts poor results. In 13 appearances, we saw them win four times, tie three, and lose on six occasions. Their goal difference is 16 scored, and 24 conceded, making Fire’s offense the third-worst in the division in that category. The defense is tied for the worst.
DC United has three points more than Chicago and is two points away from the play-in zone. They are coming to the Windy City following a win in Toronto, 1-3, which was a big deal for Troy Lesesne’s boys. They were looking for this, mainly because of the loss against FC Dallas at home, 3-4, in the first game following the Leagues Cup.
Untied’s matches are very efficient, and the previous ten were all with over 2.5 goals, seven of them with four or more. Just two were without both teams netting.
