Los Angeles FC vs Chicago Fire Prediction
In their two previous meetings, Chicago won 3-1 at home back in 2018 and both teams were tied 0-0 in Los Angeles in 2019.
In this Los Angeles FC vs Chicago Fire, both teams are coming at a pickem price. Both teams have almost the same number of points this season, and both have terrible home/away splits. Chicago has only three wins in their 11 home games this season, while LA FC has two wins in their 9 road games. Both teams are also in relatively good form, as they are undefeated in seven of their last eight games combined, so I really cannot pick a side in this matchup. Those two teams have been very effective offensively this season, as they average 3.63 goals per game combined, and they allow 2.94 goals per game combined defensively. With the total set at 3 goals which give us push protection, I will go over the total of 3 goals in this one.
