    Chicago Fire vs New England Revolution Prediction

    Signal’s model has this finishing 2-1 to Chicago Fire, with both teams to score and the over 2.five line clearing comfortably — a scoreline that fits two sides who trade goals more readily than they stop them. Chicago’s third-place standing and +11 goal difference make them deserving favorites at Soldier Field, while New England, fourth in the East on 37 points, should have enough going forward through Gil to get on the board before the Fire’s edge tells.
