Chicago Fire<\/a> host Orlando City<\/a> at Soldier Field on Wednesday, October 28 (8:30 PM ET \/ 7:30 PM CT \/ 5:30 PM PT).<\/strong><\/p>\n

Chicago Fire have no fresh absences to factor into their lineup plans, meaning Maren Haile-Selassie should again lead the attack after racking up 11 goals and 51 chances created this season, with Philip Zinckernagel’s 61 chances created pulling the strings behind Robert Lewandowski. Orlando City will lean on Mart\u00edn Ojeda<\/a>, who has 15 goals and 36 shots on target, alongside Antoine Griezmann’s 12 goals, while defender Iv\u00e1n Angulo remains a constant at the back with 2,628 minutes played this season.<\/p>\n

This looks set to be an open, goal-filled afternoon at Soldier Field rather than a cagey affair, with both sides carrying attacking threats but defensive frailties \u2014 Chicago’s +8 goal difference against Orlando’s -12 tells its own story. Chicago Fire, fourth in the East on 48 points, should have enough in Haile-Selassie and Zinckernagel to get the better of an Orlando City side sitting seventh on 41 points, still in the playoff picture<\/a> but prone to conceding at the other end.<\/p>\n
