Chicago Fire vs San Diego Predictions

Goals on the agenda in Chicago

San Diego are in goalscoring form and look set to continue that trend when they visit Chicago Fire at Soldier Field.

They are 11 points superior to Chicago Fire in the standings, with 12 wins, three draws and six losses. In contrast, the hosts have eight victories, four draws and eight defeats.

Chicago Fire could not break their losing habit last time, going down 2-1 to Cincinnati.

The hosts have serious defensive issues, with Chicago Fire failing to keep a clean sheet in 18 of their last 20 MLS games. They have gone nine games without a shutout and have not kept out their opponents in four consecutive home matches.

The hosts have struggled to find the net this season, with just ten goals in nine home games. That’s an average of just over one goal a game for Chicago Fire at Soldier Field.

San Diego have been in excellent form on the road, having won four of their last five MLS away games, including three straight successes.

They look set to win a high-scoring game when they visit Chicago Fire on Sunday. No team has had more games with over 2.5 goals than the hosts in MLS this season, and San Diego’s 2-1 victory looks a decent correct-score bet.
