THE PREDICTION
Neither of these sides have made great starts to the regular season campaign as they languish in the bottom half of the Eastern Conference table but it’s still early in the season and both Jaap Stam and Raphael Wicky will feel like they can turn their respective sides’ fortunes around. Although these teams met last week with Chicago Fire earning a 3-0 victory, it is likely to be a different story at Nippert Stadium where Stam has his side playing with a lot more discipline. They managed to keep high-flying Columbus Crew from scoring last time out which made it three successive clean sheets at home so expect this to be a tight game featuring under 2.5 goals.
