We said: Chicago Fire 1-2 Houston Dynamo
Chicago have been struggling to find their best form this season and are coming off a very poor display against Atlanta last weekend. They now have to face a Houston side that are unbeaten in their last four in all competitions, are riding a three-match winning streak and will be brimming with confidence after their comeback win against the Earthquakes.
We fancy the hosts to get on the board here but feel that the visitors will outscore them by the final whistle.
