The Red Bulls seem to be figuring out some of their early season struggles and have picked up two wins on the bounce, both 2-0 shutouts. If Alex Muyl and Bradley Wright-Phillips continue to build chemistry up top, this team could finish at or near the top of the Eastern Conference for yet another year.
Chicago put together a nice string of results before losing 3-1 at Toronto, collecting wins against Columbus and New England and earning an away draw against Montreal. The Fire have been dramatically better through seven matches than what we came to expect over the past few seasons.
