Chicago Fire v Cincinnati : Major League Soccer match betting preview, prediction and odds

Sun 20th Apr, 01:30 BST, Soldier Field, Chicago

the Soldier Field plays host on Sunday morning, as Frank Klopas's Chicago Fire welcome Pat Noonan's Cincinnati in the Major League Soccer. You'll see stats supporting our top of below, but don't forget to explore 16 other markets we're covering too. Each has been designed to give you as full a picture as possible, with Major League Soccer performances and head to heads (H2Hs) included, so that you're able to make the smartest bet choices. Finally, be sure to get the best odds from leading bookmakers.


Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The stats suggest there isn't an obvious winner for this clash, but the evidence does point towards the conclusion that Chicago and Cincinnati will find the net twice at least between them. That has been the case when they've gone head-to-head historically, and neither Frank Klopas or Pat Noonan has subjected their supporters to too many 0-0s recently either. The bookmakers are predicting over 1.5 goals too, with top odds of 1.22 equating to approximately a 79% probability.
