In a tightly contested MLS match at Sports Illustrated Stadium, the New York Red Bulls edged out Chicago Fire FC with a 2-1 victory. The Red Bulls, playing in a 4-2-3-1 formation, capitalized on their chances, converting two of their six shots on target, while Chicago Fire FC, deploying a 4-3-3, managed only one goal despite having more shots (12 vs 7) and higher possession (56.3% vs 43.7%). The goals came from Jonathan Bamba for Chicago in the 32nd minute, followed by Serge Ngoma for New York in the 41st minute, and Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting converting a penalty in added time of the first half. The AI-powered pre-game prediction correctly forecasted a New York Red Bulls win, aligning with their slightly higher team rating (0.492 vs 0.385) and win probability (44.1% vs 28.1%). This result sees the Red Bulls continuing their inconsistent form, alternating wins and losses, while Chicago Fire's recent run of positive results was halted. Examining past encounters shows a mixed bag of results between these teams, with recent matches often being close affairs. The Red Bulls now prepare to face Orlando City SC away, a team they recently drew with, while Chicago Fire FC will host Inter Miami CF, a tough challenge given Miami's strong team rating and recent form in the league and in the Concacaf Champions Cup. In their previous games, New York Red Bulls have been alternating wins, draws, and losses, while Chicago Fire FC had a series of good results lately before this game.
