Recent home/away form

FC Cincinnati

FC Cincinnati's recent home form has been inconsistent, with alternating wins and losses in their last six games at home. Despite this, they have managed to score an impressive 15 goals in these matches, averaging 2.5 goals per game. However, their defense has been suspect, conceding 12 goals at a rate of 2 per game. Two particularly high-scoring encounters stand out: a 6-1 victory over Inter Miami and a thrilling 4-3 win against Philadelphia Union. While they currently sit atop the league table with 48 points from 22 games, FC Cincinnati will need to address their defensive vulnerabilities to maintain their position and establish a more consistent run of results at home.

Chicago Fire

Chicago Fire's recent away form has been poor, with a run of three consecutive defeats in their last three games on the road. In their previous six away matches, they have only managed to secure one win and one draw, while suffering four losses. The team has struggled defensively, conceding 12 goals in these six games, an average of 2 goals per game. On a positive note, they did have one particularly high-scoring game, a 4-1 victory against Toronto FC. However, their overall away form has been disappointing, with a goal difference of -3 and no clean sheets in their last six away fixtures.
