DC United vs Chicago Fire Prediction & Picks - Major League Soccer

Prediction published on 5/23/23, 10:09 AM by Bradley Gibbs | Modified on 5/23/24 at 11:09 AM in Major League Soccer Picks

An out-of-form Chicago Fire team will head back out on the road this weekend as they go in search of a much-needed win, which would be their first in eight games. D.C. United will be the hosts at Audi Field and they too will be looking to bounce back following a couple of defeats, the first of which was a heavy on home soil. Both teams will also be looking to improve on rather displeasing Eastern Conference positions, as the hosts sit in 9th, with the visitors down in a lowly 14th.

Our DC United vs Chicago Fire Prediction

From a betting point of view, this game doesn't make much appeal from a team angle. However, it does look like a good opportunity for visiting striker Hugo Cuypers to get back on the scoresheet and at the currently available odds, it's worth betting that the Belgian does just that. We know that the hosts have struggled to keep things tight of late, even at home, so the Fire will get chances here and as Cuypers have looked hungry of late, shooting with real regularity, he might just profit. The 27-year-old hasn't been too prolific since joining Chicago from Gent in his native Belgium, scoring only three goals in 14 games, but he's been getting into good positions of late and will go to Audi Field having produced shot totals of 3, 3, 2 and 5 in his last four games, hitting the target at least once in each of those game. Factor in an average of 0.31 xG per 90 minutes in MLS this season and he looks a decent bet to score at early odds of +275. Our Prediction: Hugo Cuypers to Score.
