We said: Chicago Fire 2-1 Orlando City
Off the back of a disappointing Leagues Cup run, Chicago Fire and Orlando City will be looking to return to league action with a morale-boosting result. While both sides are evenly matched heading into this one, the Fire's home record in this fixture makes them slight favourites and we predict that they will come away with a slender victory.
