Sounders at Chicago Fire: Three Questions

There was a time when facing the Chicago Fire would be one of the easier matches in the league. They were the worst team in 2015 and 2016, both years as the only team that earned less than a point per game. But this year’s Fire are a more typical MLS side. They look good at times; they look bad at times; they look like a probable playoff side. ESPN2 picked up the Saturday, May 13 (6 PM) match not because of the Fire brand, but because they signed Bastian Schweinsteiger, World Cup winner.
