Cincinnati FC at Chicago Fire 7/13/19 - MLS Picks & Predictions

Chicago Fire failed to pair two wins together when they suffered a slim loss against Sporting KC. They will now have a solid opportunity for some points when they will host Cincinnati on Saturday. The newcomers are actually coming off a win but have been quite weak so far.

Chicago Fire (5-8-7) are coming off a bad performance on the road against Sporting KC, where they conceded an early goal and easily fell apart. They have won just one of their last nine matches in all competitions (1-5-3) and didn’t keep a single clean sheet. Chicago are 10th in the Eastern Conference with 22 points, one behind the playoffs. But they have been quite solid at home (5-1-4) and are undefeated since March. Cincinnati (4-13-2) played a really good match when they hosted Houston, where they took a three goal lead to eventually win much easier than the final 2-3 suggests. However, that was the first win for Cincinnati after eight consecutive matches (1-7-1). They are still sitting at the bottom of the Eastern Conference with 14 points, three behind Columbus. They have also been weak on the road (1-9-1), scoring just 9 and conceding 31 goals.
