Nashville have achieved 29 points from their 17 games this season, while the hosts have 25 points from 16 matches. Nashville have recorded eight wins, five draws and four losses, while Chicago have won seven times, drawn four and lost five.

Chicago Fire maintained their winning run last time out, recording a resounding 7-1 victory over DC United. They led 4-0 at half-time, making it five games in a row that they have been ahead at the interval.

They will be expecting to find the net, having scored at least three times in three of their last four MLS games. They have also found the net in seven of their last eight league matches.

Chicago Fire have been in excellent form, having won four of their last five MLS matches. They have led at half-time in each of those victories, including their last two games.

Nashville’s defence has shown signs of vulnerability, conceding in each of their last seven MLS road trips. They have yet to keep a clean sheet away from home this season, leaking an average of 1.71 goals per game from those seven matches.
