Chicago Fire sit third in the East on 48 points and remain firmly in the playoff picture, while Philadelphia Union are sixth on 42 points and still well placed for a postseason berth. Maren Haile-Selassie&#8217;s movement up top and Philip Zinckernagel&#8217;s chance creation give Chicago Fire the edge over a Philadelphia Union side built around Milan Iloski&#8217;s goals, and we&#8217;re backing Chicago Fire to win 2-1.<\/p>\n\n<!-- SQ-HUBX-START -->\n<style>.sq-hubx *{box-sizing:border-box}.sq-hubx a.sq-hubx-link{transition:filter .15s}.sq-hubx a.sq-hubx-link:hover{filter:brightness(1.12)}@media(max-width:600px){.sq-hubx .sq-hubx-t{font-size:13.5px}.sq-hubx .sq-hubx-lead{font-size:15px}}<\/style>\n<div class=\"sq-hubx\" style=\"background:linear-gradient(135deg,#4a1109 0%,#340d08 60%,#210503 100%);border-radius:12px;padding:15px 15px 14px;margin:14px 0;color:#fff;font-family:'Inter',system-ui,-apple-system,sans-serif\"><div style=\"display:flex;align-items:center;gap:7px;font-weight:800;font-size:11px;letter-spacing:.10em;text-transform:uppercase;color:#a8e039;margin-bottom:8px\"><svg viewBox=\"0 0 696 696\" width=\"14\" height=\"14\" fill=\"#a8e039\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><path d=\"M473.282 222.72H696.002C696.002 99.6672 596.335 0 473.282 0H250.562C250.562 123.053 350.23 222.72 473.282 222.72Z\"\/><path d=\"M222.72 445.44V0C99.6672 0 0 99.6672 0 222.72C0 345.773 99.6672 445.44 222.72 445.44Z\"\/><path d=\"M473.281 250.563V696.003C596.334 696.003 696.001 596.336 696.001 473.283C696.001 350.231 596.334 250.563 473.281 250.563Z\"\/><path d=\"M222.72 473.277H0C0 596.33 99.6672 695.997 222.72 695.997H445.44C445.44 572.944 345.773 473.277 222.72 473.277Z\"\/><\/svg>Squawka Signal<\/div><p class=\"sq-hubx-lead\" style=\"font-weight:500;font-size:16px;line-height:1.34;color:#fff;margin:0 0 13px\">Our model rates every MLS fixture &mdash; see the numbers behind <b style=\"color:#fff\">Chicago Fire v Philadelphia Union<\/b>.<\/p><a class=\"sq-hubx-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/us\/news\/mls\/squawkas-mls-ai-predictor\/?ref=sqhubx-mls-predictor\" style=\"display:flex;align-items:center;gap:11px;text-decoration:none;border-radius:9px;padding:11px 13px;background:#ff8781\"><span style=\"width:33px;height:33px;flex:none;border-radius:8px;background:#2a0503;display:flex;align-items:center;justify-content:center\"><svg viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" fill=\"none\" stroke=\"#ff8781\" stroke-width=\"2.2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><path d=\"M3 3v18h18\"\/><path d=\"M7 14l4-4 3 3 5-6\"\/><\/svg><\/span><span style=\"flex:1;min-width:0\"><span style=\"display:block;font-weight:600;font-size:14px;color:#2a0503;line-height:1.2\">MLS AI Predictor<\/span><span style=\"display:block;font-size:12px;color:#5c1811;margin-top:2px;line-height:1.25\">Every match this week rated by our model<\/span><\/span><svg viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" width=\"15\" height=\"15\" fill=\"none\" stroke=\"#2a0503\" stroke-width=\"2.6\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><polyline points=\"9 6 15 12 9 18\"\/><\/svg><\/a><a class=\"sq-hubx-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/us\/soccer-predictions\/anytime-goalscorer\/?ref=sqhubx-mls-atgs\" style=\"display:flex;align-items:center;gap:11px;text-decoration:none;border-radius:9px;padding:11px 13px;border:1px solid #ff878155;background:#ff87811a;margin-top:8px\"><span style=\"width:33px;height:33px;flex:none;border-radius:8px;background:#ff87812e;display:flex;align-items:center;justify-content:center\"><svg viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" fill=\"none\" stroke=\"#ff8781\" stroke-width=\"2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><circle cx=\"12\" cy=\"12\" r=\"9\"\/><path d=\"M12 7v10M7 12h10\"\/><\/svg><\/span><span style=\"flex:1;min-width:0\"><span class=\"sq-hubx-t\" style=\"display:block;font-weight:600;font-size:14px;color:#fff;line-height:1.2\">Anytime Goalscorer predictions<\/span><span style=\"display:block;font-size:12px;color:rgba(255,255,255,.72);margin-top:2px;line-height:1.25\">This week&rsquo;s picks across the league<\/span><\/span><svg viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" width=\"15\" height=\"15\" fill=\"none\" stroke=\"#ff8781\" stroke-width=\"2.6\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><polyline points=\"9 6 15 12 9 18\"\/><\/svg><\/a><\/div>\n<!-- SQ-HUBX-END -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Predicted lineups and team news for Chicago Fire vs Philadelphia Union, plus our prediction, odds and best bets for this East showdown.
