New York Red Bulls welcome Chicago Fire at Red Bull Arena, New Jersey on Sunday, Aug 23 at 1:30 AM in a MLS fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 1 point split them in the table.
New York Red Bulls come into this fixture in good form (3W 1D 1L recently). Chicago Fire travel in good form (3W 0D 2L recently), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.
Head-to-head records offer little separation — New York Red Bulls and Chicago Fire have split their 10 meetings almost evenly (3W–3D–4W). Their last encounter ended in Chicago Fire won 1–3.
Verdict: Little separates these two on form or history. Home advantage could be the deciding factor — a narrow New York Red Bulls win or a draw looks most likely.
