Team News

Chicago
FC Cincinnati
  • Carlos Teran is at least three weeks away after undergoing knee surgery.
  • Bryan Dowd and Javier Casas Jr. are both out with a lower left leg injury.
  • Victor Bezerra is out with a right upper leg injury.
  • Andrew Gutman was injured after only four minutes last match, but he should only miss around four matches.
  • Nick Hagglund is still joining the team on a limited basis.
  • Alec Kann is out with a hand injury.
  • Marco Angulo is dealing with a personal family matter and is away from the team.

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.
