I like it. Chicago has the best record in the MLS since May 25th (they were 2-7-1 before that)

Keep in mind last time Toronto beat Chicago was 3 years ago, rest are wins for Chicago and 2 draws.

Toronto has failed to score 11 times, have only 3 clean sheets, and have a -16 goal differential.

Chicago has a -5 goal differential, but have scored 26 of their 32 goals since May 25th.

pk, -.5 (or -.25) at +117 is the play for me, along with a ML parlay with the St. Louis Cardinals vs. the Brewers.

I would also throw some money on the Fire 1st half pk if you're book offers live or halftime betting (it is all a matter of when Chicago scores, not if they will)

This is the graphic for why I've been referring to May 25th. The graphic was show during their August 23rd game.

Chicago has struggled on the road, even since they've righted the ship somewhat. This is a big opportunity for them to move into playoff position in the East, but I can't trust them to win outright.

Fire PK/DNB seems reasonable. If the Fire capitalize on a great chance to snag three points away from home against a bad team, you'll cash. If the Fire stay true to their overall road form this season and struggle, I still think they'll manage a draw because they need the points so much more than TFC.

I thought TFC was a little better defensively against Portland in its first match under the new coach, but it ran out of gas and gave up three goals at the end of the match. Not sure if the coach is working guys too hard at training and it is draining them, or if they just suck and need fitter players who are tougher mentally.

thanks guys taking chicago ML, hopefully they take advantage of taking some points while on the road.
