Aug 28th features a match where Chicago Fire will host Montreal Impact at Toyota Park in a clash of these two extremely mismatched Major League Soccer teams. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy but warm day with daytime temperatures of 25 degrees, a perfect day for football. In their last match, Chicago Fire recorded a 0-2 loss against New York City. Gabriel Pereira dos Santos struck first for New York City in the 16th minute, then Santiago Rodriguez added another in the 46th minute In the end, Chicago Fire was frustrated by New York City’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. New York City ended the match with the shutout victory. Chicago Fire is looking for direction having 4 win and 4 losses in their last 10 matches, while in their last match, 2nd placed Montreal Impact, recorded a 4-0 shutout win against New England Revolution. Kei Kamara struck first for Montreal Impact in the 26th minute, then Romell Quioto added another in the 39th minute In the end, New England Revolution couldn’t muster any offence and Montreal Impact ran away with the shutout win. Montreal Impact should be reasonably happy with their recent performance, earning 20 points in their last 10 matches.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season. Last season Montreal Impact won the head to head battle with 2 wins.
Romell Quioto has been on a hot streak lately. In the last five games, the attacker has scored five goals for Montreal Impact. Both Przybylko and Christopher Mueller have been the hottest scorers for Chicago Fire in the last 5 each having scored 2 goals.
