We said: Chicago Fire 2-1 Vancouver Whitecaps

 The Caps have built up a lot of confidence away from home of late, winning three of their last four road contests in all competitions, and we expect Gauld and White to carry them to another massive three points on Wednesday. Defensively, the Fire have struggled in recent outings, while they have not created nearly as many scoring opportunities since Mueller was sidelined through injury.
