Both teams are a balanced 3-3-4 in their last 10 overall meetings, while Chicago is 3-1-2 in their last six home meetings against Philly. Over is 4-1 in their last 5 overall meetings, and 3-1 in their last 4 meetings in Philadelphia.

In this Philadelphia Union vs Chicago Fire Prediction, both teams are coming at a pickem price. Philadelphia has 12 more points than Chicago, and have two losses in their 8 road games, while Chicago has only two losses at home, so I see no value on either side. Both teams are 20-4 to the over in their last 24 games combined, as they both have explosive offenses, averaging 3.95 goals per game combined. Their two meetings last season had 7 and 4 total goals, and I expect another high-scoring affair today. Take the over 3 goals.
