Chicago Fire to end long winless run in Kansas

Chicago Fire to end long winless run in Kansas
1767

In the early hours of Sunday morning, Chicago Fire travels to face Sporting Kansas City, as the visitors look to move in the play-off spots in the Eastern Conference of MLS.

Sporting Kansas City are enduring a difficult campaign in Western Conference and currently sit 11th in the standings, seven points outside the play-off spots. It looks unlikely that City will pick up enough form to get into the top seven this season.

A record of just two wins in their last 14 MLS outings has certainly not helped to move them into the play-off positions this season.

KC may have been in poor form this season in MLS, but Scottish star Johnny Russell and Hungarian Krisztian Nemeth have both scored seven goals each this season.

The home sides biggest problem is keeping the opposition out, as only bottom of the conference Colorado Rapids have conceded more than the home side in the Western Conference.

Even home-field advantage has not proven helpful for KC, as they have won just once in their last seven games on home soil.

One positive for KC is their recent record against the visitors, winning four of the last six meetings.

Chicago Fire are still in the hunt for a play-off spot this season, despite a poor run of form of late. The visitors ended a six-game winless run last time out by recording a 5-1 victory Atlanta United.

The Fire has endured an inconsistent MLS campaign overall, as they have lost more games than they have won this season in the US top-flight.

Chicago Fire have been simply woeful on the road in recent seasons, as they have failed to win in 21 away games in MLS.

However, Forebet predicts that the Fire will end that long winless run on their travels by recording a win in a high-scoring clash.
