Betting Insights
- Chicago are 2.5 favorites to win on Saturday, compared to 2.4 for New England and 3.8 for the draw.
- New England have failed to win their last two home games against Chicago, so Chicago Fire will fancy their chances of ruining the party, although we're expecting a tight matchup.
- Over 2.5 goals at 1.42 and Both Teams to Score Yes at 1.37 are very tight odds, but the head-to-head suggests an open game with goals at both ends is possible.
Prediction
- This looks set to be a close game, but the visitors' superior form and away goal record makes Chicago a live bet for the win.
- We're siding with Chicago to grind out a win on the road, although New England's impressive home record means it's a tough game to recommend any better than a draw no bet selection.
