Oh, what a game! According to statistics Chicago Fire is stronger than a home team but I don't think so. Thursday’s football game will be very attractive. Cincinnati played out a goalless draw with Columbus Crew at the weekend, with the team extending their winless run in MLS to three games. Jaap Stam’s troops are eager to return to winning ways in the Major League Soccer, and they are likely to fight tooth and nail against Chicago Fire.
Chicago Fire can't show a good game out from their home, this gives Cincinnati’s fine performances at the MLS is back tournament, home win should be considered.
My prediction: 2-0.
