"DC United will be seeking an immediate response here. Nevertheless, despite their frustrating trip to Tennessee on Sunday, the Eagles have largely impressed over the past few weeks. Signing off April with a rollercoaster 3-2 victory at home against Orlando, Rene Weiler's side have registered seven points from their previous three MLS appearances and they have come skyrocketing up the Eastern Conference standings."
"Getting May underway with an eye-catching display as they clinched a deserved 2-0 win away at New York City, DC United are also unbeaten in all of their last five consecutive MLS showdowns. Finding a real clinical edge in the final third, it should also be highlighted that Thursday's hosts have notched 11 goals in just their previous four outings."
"While Chicago might have stormed their way to a sensational 5-0 romp at home against Sporting KC last month, the Fire have come crashing back down to earth in a worrying fashion. Putting in another concerning performance over the weekend as they eventually slumped to a 3-1 defeat against the New York Red Bulls, Thursday's guests have lost each of their previous three consecutive appearances across all formats by an aggregate score of 8-4."
DC United play Chicago Fire in an early Thursday MLS matchup. DC United are coming off a late collapse in a 2-2 draw at Nashville, but have shown improvement in recent weeks. They earned seven points from their previous three MLS matches, climbed the Eastern Conference standings, and are unbeaten in their last five consecutive MLS meetings. They also scored 11 goals across their previous four outings, suggesting strong attacking form. Chicago, despite a prior 5-0 win over Sporting KC, has struggled since. They suffered a 3-1 loss to the New York Red Bulls and have lost each of their previous three matches across all competitions by an aggregate score of 8-4.
