We said: Orlando City 1-1 Chicago Fire

As Orlando have struggled to meet expectations at home this year, Chicago will fancy their chances of registering a third straight away win, to close within two points of their hosts in the Eastern Conference standings. However, they can often be caught out defensively, so a draw may have to suffice.
