Prediction

  • Chicago had Philadelphia on the ropes before Daniel Gazdag scored a stoppage-time goal to equalize. All things considered, at the beginning of the match, Chicago would absolutely take a draw at Subaru Park in Chester. Now they have to face the reigning Supporters Shield winners in FC Cincinnati in the home opener.
  • FC Cincinnati surprisingly drew with Toronto FC at home in the first MLS matchday. They did dispatch of Cavalier in the Concacaf Champions Cup 6-0 on aggregate. Many players were rotated in the mid-week match and we should see as close to a first-choice squad as FC Cincinnati can field.
