Last Game: Columbus Crew 4-2 Charlotte FC
Sunday, June 4 at 1.09am in Major League Soccer

We said: Chicago Fire 2-2 Columbus Crew

Chicago Fire may have exited the US Open cup with a whimper, but with Klopas sure to ring the changes, a 10th unbeaten home game in a row in MLS could be on the cards, especially given the Crew's miserable record on the road. The visitors are still a force to be reckoned with in the final third, albeit while struggling for clean sheets at the other end of the field, and we can envisage a back-and-forth contest ending all square.
