◆ CheckLive verdict
Slight edge — Chicago Fire
CheckLive's preview leans decisively toward Chicago Fire — a superior mental profile and form metrics outweigh a rough run of results. DC United enter unbeaten in four, but the underlying numbers question whether that run is sustainable against a side that dominates the key performance indicators.
