Orlando City aim to close the 11-point gap to the European places as they host a Chicago Fire side currently entrenched in the continental qualification spots.
Orlando City enter this fixture in 10th place, desperate for consistency after a mixed run of results that included a 4-0 thrashing of San Jose followed by a narrow 3-2 defeat to the New York Red Bulls. Despite their erratic form, the Lions have remained competitive at home, recently securing a 1-0 win over Nashville and a 1-1 draw against FC Cincinnati.
Chicago Fire sit 3rd in the standings and are enjoying a strong campaign, highlighted by a recent 2-1 victory over Portland. However, their away form has stuttered lately; despite being the league's best scoring road team with 18 goals in eight matches, they suffered consecutive defeats on their last two trips to New York and Miami.
