New York’s offshoot of Austrian beverage maker Red Bull challenges Chicago Fire on Matchday 15 of Major League Soccer. Slowly but surely, we are approaching half of the regular time and it is becoming clear which direction the teams are heading for.
RB New York vs. Chicago Fire Football Betting Prediction
The team of Chris Armas has come out of the starting blocks well and on a good way to qualify for the final round. For this it is necessary to reach the top six of the respective conference. Last year the bulls were the best team in the main round. The chances of conquering Chicago are answered by the analysis of the match against Red Bull. Fire.
The opponent from Chicago must certainly gain something, if the season should not be over after the main round already. After a series of five consecutive league games in a row, Fire has slipped out of the top spots and has to make do not lose the connection.
Will Bastian Schweinsteiger and his team make the turnaround at the guest appearance in New Jersey? Of course it will not be easy for the strong bulls to take home something countable. In the game RB New York vs. Chicago Fire odds of 1.91 are paid for a bet on a home win.
RB New York – Statistics & Current Form
The red-whites from New Jersey failed last year just before reaching the MLS finals. As the best team in the main round, the Bulls defeated Columbus Crew 3: 1 in the Conference semi-finals. The New Yorkers came out in the final of the Eastern Conference. RB New York beat Atlanta United 3-1 after a first-leg play-off. A total of three times (2013, 2015 and 2018), the team has already won the MLS Supporters Shield, which honors the team that has the most points after the regular main round.
This year, the team of head coach Chris Armas takes a fresh start to win the title in the American MLS. After sixteen games completed, RB is well on course to qualify for the knockout round. With a record of seven wins, three draws and six defeats, 24 points have so far been collected. The bulls are currently in fifth place in the table. However, the table picture is quite wrong, because the teams have completed different numbers of games. From fourteen games (New York City) to nineteen games (Montreal Impact) everything is represented.
With a win against Chicago Fire, New York would be in the Top 5 but once set. The form for success seems to fit. Of the last ten competitive games, the red-whites were able to contest six victorious. In the last league game, there was a 2: 3 defeat at the current leader of the Eastern Conference. At Philadelphia Union, coach Chris Armas’s men were 2-0 at half-time, but Union were able to equalize the game with a one-two hurricane effort after just one hour and twenty minutes from time. In the cup competition, the red-whites overturned by a 2: 3 defeat after extra time against New England Revolution out.
Now it is to go against Chicago back on the road to success. The bull Aaron Long, who represents his colors at the Gold Cup, has already lost two matches. In the game RB New York vs Chicago Fire, the tip is rewarded to the home side with a score of 1.91. The best scorers on RB’s side are Brian White with four goals and Daniel Royer, who has netted three times so far. Marc Rzatkowski, who was under contract with RB New York at VfL Bochum, Bielefeld and FC St. Pauli, is also known to one or two other football experts.
Best scorers in the league:
🥇 Brian White 4 goals
🥈 Daniel Royer 3 goals
Expected lineup of RB New York:
↳ Robles – Duncan, Parker, Tarek, Lade – Davis, Rzatkowski – Royer, Romero, Muyl – White
Last Games from RB New York:
⚽️ 12.06.2019 – New York Red Bulls Vs. New England Revolution 2: 3 (US Open Cup)

Chicago Fire – Statistics & Current Form
After a disappointing tenth place in the Eastern Conference last year, at least this year’s knockout round will be in Chicago. After seventeen games completed, however, only four wins have been celebrated so far. Fire drew seven times and six games were lost. With the 19 points achieved so far, it is currently only enough for eighth place. The gap to the places that would qualify for participation in the next round after the regular season is already four points and the direct competition has more games to play than the team of head coach Veljko Paunovic. It is therefore to be feared that the North Americans will fall even further behind.
One reason for this is a negative series that has been going on for six games. In addition to the knockout in the Cup against the low-class team of Saint Louis FC, could also be brought in the five league games only three draws. Even more blatant is the outward weakness of the red and white. Of the eight games completed so far this season on the opponent’s place, not a single game has been won.
“The team is not satisfied with the current situation.” – Coach Veljko Paunovic after the 1: 1 against RSL
Three times it was enough for at least a point division. Can the weak series be broken in New York? In the match between RB New York and Chicago Fire, we predict that the team around former German international Bastian Schweinsteiger will have to wait for the first three in a foreign stadium.
In addition to Schweinsteiger, there was a second German to Chicago. Fabian Herbers hired Fire earlier this season and has already made six appearances this term. The top scorers on Eastern Conference’s worst away team are Ghanese C.J. Sapong (6 goals) and the Hungarian Nemania Nikolics, who has been able to overcome the opposing goalkeeper five times.
The balance sheets of Fire were rather clear in recent years. The greatest successes were celebrated around the turn of the millennium, when the Red-Whites, for example, hailed their only championship so far (1998) and the Supporters Shield won (2003). In New York, the bridgeview team is now in dire need of scoring points to maintain contact with the top six places that qualify for the knockout round. Missing are Djordje Mihailovic and Francisco Calvo.
Best scorers in the league:
🥇 C.J. Sapong 6 goals
🥈 Nemanja Nikolics 5 goals
Expected lineup of Chicago Fire:
↳ Kronholm – Corrales, Schweinsteiger, Marcelo, Bronico – McCarty, Adams – Katai, Gaitan, Herbers – Nikolics
Last Games by Chicago Fire:
⚽️ 06/23/2019 – Chicago Fire Vs. Real Salt Lake 1: 1 (Major League Soccer)
⚽️ 12.06.2019 – Saint Louis Vs. Chicago Fire 2: 1 (US Open Cup)
⚽️ 02.06.2019 – Atlanta Vs. Chicago Fire 2: 0 (Major League Soccer)
⚽️ 30.05.2019 – DC United vs. Chicago Fire 3: 3 (Major League Soccer)

Nevertheless, Red Bull was able to correct the balance in recent years, clearly in his own favor. Of the last ten duels could be won at least six, while the guests were only twice successful. In the game RB New York vs Chicago Fire we are predicting that the Bulls will be ahead again this time.
RB New York vs. Chicago Fire Our Football Prediction Explained
This game is especially important for the guests from Bridgeview. Another defeat and the gap to the top six of the Eastern Conference would be huge, especially considering that Fire has played the most games. The cops can finally establish themselves with a threesome in the top group. Six wins from the last ten duels suggest a decent shape. That’s why RB is also the favorite for bookmakers.

Therefore, in the match of RB New York against Chicago Fire we recommend the tip on the hosts, who is rewarded with a odds of 1.91. After a bad start to the season, the hosts are getting better and better and are able to beat anyone, especially in the local Red Bull Arena.
