Red Bulls and Fire Likely to Produce a Winner

New York Red Bulls have recorded several wins in their recent sequence and average 1.8 goals per home game this season. Chicago Fire enter with an even stronger run of results that includes multiple victories and solid defensive showings away from home. Head to head meetings between the sides have produced wins for both teams across the last ten encounters. Chicago’s higher scoring rate overall adds to the sense that they can find the net on the road. New York have also shown enough attacking moments at their own ground to suggest they will not settle for a stalemate. The combination of these patterns points toward one side claiming all three points rather than a shared result.
