The Chicago Fire and New York Red Bulls will try to end their five-game winless streaks when they face each other on Sunday at Soldier Field.
This week, Chicago played to a 0-0 draw with New York City FC, while the Red Bulls also failed to find the back of the net in a scoreless tie with FC Cincinnati.
We say: Chicago Fire 2-2 New York Red Bulls
Chicago have not had any trouble scoring on their home field, but they concede too many goals on average, which is why they rarely walk away with three points.
The Red Bulls' high pressing system has been successful at times, but they have found themselves in many high-scoring matches this season and do not seem to have enough firepower to come out on top.

The reigning Supporters' Shield winners will travel to Gillette Stadium on Sunday to face the current leaders in that race, the New England Revolution.
The Revs are riding a five-game unbeaten run into this weekend, while the Philadelphia Union ended their three-match winless streak with a 3-0 win over Toronto on Wednesday.
We say: New England Revolution 1-1 Philadelphia Union
The Revs had a lot of the ball in their match on Wednesday, but without the presence of Gil in the middle of the park, they did not have as many clear-cut scoring opportunities as they usually do.
Philly are winless in their last six road games, starting slow in every one of those matches and having to find a way back in the latter stages of many of those encounters.

Inter Miami can set a franchise record for their longest unbeaten run with a win or draw versus Nashville SC on Sunday at DRV PNK Stadium.
On Wednesday, the Herons came back to draw Orlando City 1-1, while Nashville are unbeaten in their last nine games after playing to a 0-0 draw with the New England Revolution.
We say: Inter Miami 0-1 Nashville SC
Inter Miami have been better of late, earning positive results against three good teams, but they still struggle to create enough quality opportunities to come away with three points.
Nashville are on a roll, and whether they are playing good or not, they always seem to find another gear and earn a result.

Having gone four games without a victory, Los Angeles FC travel to the PayPal Park on Monday for their meeting with San Jose Earthquakes.
Meanwhile, the home side are looking to end a run of five outings without a win on their own turf after winning each of the first two.
We say: San Jose Earthquakes 1-2 Los Angeles FC
Neither team has been too convincing of late, and they both have gears to find going forward. Los Angeles FC have the better team on paper, which does not always translate to victory, but we are backing them to emerge victorious at the end of the 90 minutes.

LA Galaxy vs. Vancouver (Monday, 1.00am)

The Los Angeles Galaxy will look for their third consecutive victory when they host the Vancouver Whitecaps at Dignity Health Tennis Center on Sunday.
LA are coming off a 1-0 victory on Wednesday against Real Salt Lake, while the Whitecaps drew 2-2 with Minnesota United, their fourth straight game without a defeat.
We say: Los Angeles Galaxy 1-2 Vancouver Whitecaps
The Galaxy are an energetic team and an exciting one to watch who have been clinical in front of goal at home, but they have struggled against non-playoff teams this year, losing 4-0 to Dallas and losing once to the Caps.
Vancouver have shown a lot more poise near the end of their matches lately, and they have played the Galaxy tough all year, plus they will have had a whole week to rest and prepare for this game, and they should be getting some key contributors defensively and offensively back in the lineup.

Separated by just one point on the log, playoff hopefuls DC United and CF Montreal prepare for their clash at the Audi Field on Monday.
The home side are on a four-game unbeaten streak ahead of the clash in Washington, while the visitors have failed to win any of their last four.
We say: DC United 2-1 CF Montreal
DC United are the more in-form team heading into the contest and will fancy themselves to claim all three points. We are backing them to use their current momentum to get over the line in this one, albeit by just a narrow margin.
