The MLS 2021 continues its course and the Week 7 of the tournament will bring us an exciting match between Chicago Fire and Inter Miami. The hosts will be looking for a win to improve their position at the table, while the visitors will try to pick up from where they left last weekend. Check out the match information, storylines, predictions, odds, and how to watch the game.
Raphael Wicky‘s side has began its campaign in an awful way. The Fire have had their worst start to a Major League Soccer season, having lost most of the games and lacking victories so far. Will they bounce back in this game at home?
On the other hand, The Herons arrive at this round with plenty of work to do as well, but in a much better spot than their next opponents. Phil Neville‘s team picked up three much-needed points last Sunday, and it will try to keep on building from there.

Chicago Fire vs Inter Miami: Storylines
Chicago Fire head to this game under pressure to bounce back once and for all. They have lost four out of five MLS games so farand failed to win at least once. Coach Raphael Wicky knows that his team needs to step up soon, and it won’t have much more opportunities for it. In their last match, they’ve lost 1-0 against DC United.
Meanwhile, Inter Miami travel to The Windy City following a hard-fought 3-2 victory over Cincinnati FC. The Herons were at risk of dropping two points but a late Gonzalo Higuaín winner handed Phil Neville’s side an important win, hoping to keep on this way in their visit to Chicago.
This will be the first meeting between these two sides, as Miami are playing their second season in the Major League Soccer, and last year they haven’t met with Chicago.
