After two games we know a little more about the qualities of Chicago Fire and Seattle Sounders in this fresh Major League Soccer season. Read our match preview!

It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Major League Soccer.

Seattle Sounders have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 3400 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Chicago Fire form and stats

An away draw last time out for Chicago, facing New England in a game that ended 1-1. A defeat was the result before that one, 1-2 away at Seattle Sounders.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Chicago have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found eight matches with the results: Won two, drawn two and lost four.

Seattle Sounders form and stats

Sounders's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus SJ Earthquakes that finished 0-0. Ahead of that game was the 1-1 draw at home against Columbus Crew.

Goalkeeper Stefan Frei made a total of eight saves, making him a hero against SJ Earthquakes. Heavily contributing to the draw after 90 minutes.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found eight similar matches played by Seattle Sounders in our archives, and the results are: three wins for Sounders, two draws and three defeats.

After this away game Sounders return home for a Major League Soccer game against Dallas. That game is only one sleeps after this.
