In a surprising turn of events in the MLS regular season match on May 31, 2025, Chicago Fire FC defeated Orlando City SC 3-1 at Inter&Co Stadium. The AI-powered pre-game prediction favored Orlando City SC, with a 53.2% win probability, making Chicago Fire FC's victory an upset. Despite Orlando City SC dominating possession with 56.4% and unleashing a barrage of 26 shots, their conversion rate proved to be their downfall, only managing 5 shots on target.
Chicago Fire FC, playing with a 4-3-3 formation, were clinical in front of goal, scoring three times from just 10 shots, with 4 on target. Philip Zinckernagel opened the scoring early in the 5th minute, followed by a quickfire double from Hugo Cuypers in the 31st and 32nd minutes. Alexander Freeman scored for Orlando City SC in the 39th minute, but it wasn't enough to spark a comeback.
Both teams committed a similar number of fouls (12 by Orlando, 13 by Chicago) and received two yellow cards each. Orlando's high shot count suggests they struggled to break down Chicago's defense effectively or were wasteful in their finishing. Chicago's victory can be attributed to their efficiency in attack and disciplined defending.

Looking ahead, Orlando City SC faces a tough away game against Colorado Rapids on June 14th. Their recent form has been inconsistent, with alternating wins and losses. The Rapids, despite their recent struggles, will be a challenging opponent.
Chicago Fire FC's next match is away against D.C. United on June 7th. Chicago will be hoping to continue the winning momentum from this game. Their recent form has been better than Orlando City SC's.

Considering the teams' form and upcoming fixtures, Orlando City SC needs to address their finishing woes to secure positive results, while Chicago Fire FC should focus on maintaining their clinical edge in attack. The AI prediction's miscalculation highlights the unpredictable nature of MLS and the importance of on-field execution. This game demonstrates that possession and shot volume do not always translate into goals.
