The final stretch of the 2022 MLS season is on fire and the battle to be among the first 7 places in each of the conferences is getting more and more complicated, since there are very few games left for each team, so the margin for error is getting smaller and smaller.
In the Eastern Conference, the Philadelphia Union is only 1 win away from first place in the standings, since their closest rival, Montreal, is 10 points behind them. In the Western Conference, we have the same situation with LAFC, if it wins this matchday they would secure first place in the table.
On this 31st MLS matchday, we will have a very interesting game between two teams that, although they are in different situations and fighting for different goals, need to get the 3 points. Montreal will host Chicago Fire this Tuesday, September 13, 2022, at Saputo Stadium at 07:30 pm ET.
