My Prediction
Chicago Fire by 2Hold onto your hats, ladies and gents, as CF Montreal squares up against Chicago Fire. If their previous encounters are any guide, we're in for a nail-biter.
Between the pipes, for Chicago Fire, we've got Chris Brady and Jeffrey Gal who've been decent with ratings of 6.80 and 6.50 respectively, but they are up against Jonathan Sirois of CF Montreal, who has clearly been keeping the fridge well-stocked with a rating of 7.25.
Now let's turn our gaze upon the field to the players who've been shaking the net and running the show. Chicago Fire has got some fine footwork in the form of Philip Zinckernagel and Brian Gutierrez. Zinckernagel's been in form with a 7.60 rating, two goals, and maintaining a 77.7% accurate pass. Contrarily, over at CF Montreal's camp, we've got Prince-Osei Owusu lighting up the board with 3 goals and a 7.47 rating. Hennadiy Synchuk's not far behind, shining with a 7.50 rating and an 86.4% accurate pass, quite impressive eh?
Looking at the history between these two clubs, it's been a bit of a see-saw. Their last match in March 2025 ended in a draw while Chicago Fire had a thrilling 4-3 victory in 2024, with CF Montreal pulling out a 2-0 blank in Sep 2024.
When we take a gander at their recent form, Chicago Fire sports a nice and neutral 8-4-9 record from their regular-season games. On the other hand, you have CF Montreal's rather unimpressive string of games bringing them to a 3-6-13 stat line.
Mulling over the recent results, Chicago Fire seems to have a slightly stronger footing, pocketing a victory against Atlanta United FC, a tough 2-1 defeat against San Diego FC, and a sweet 3-2 win against Charlotte FC. Now CF Montreal, on the other side of the coin, stand with a recent string of mixed results, with two draws back-to-back against Philadelphia Union and Orlando City SC and a heavy 4-1 defeat against Inter Miami CF.
So, with all the facts and figures laid bare, taking into account historical data, recent performance, and firepower on the field, my money is on the Chicago Fire overcoming the CF Montreal.
