How it turned out

We projected about 2.9 goals and the game finished with 3. Both teams scored. We made New York City to score 71%, and it landed.

What we said beforehand

We expect about 1.6 goals from Chicago Fire and 1.3 from New York City, so Chicago Fire come out ahead by a nose. Put together, that is around 2.9 goals in the game, which is an ordinary sort of total.

Chicago Fire come into this on two straight wins. Recent results are only ever part of the story, but they are worth knowing before kick-off.

Our pick: New York City to score. This is about New York City's goals alone, not the game's total. We make them around 1.3 on the day, and the bet needs them to find the net, which we make about 71%.

We put the chance of that landing at about 71 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.35, which works out at about 74 out of 100. The two sit close together, so this is a lean rather than a standout price.
