📊 Match recap and data context

Chicago Fire beat Vancouver Whitecaps 3-1 at home. Our model backed a Fire win at 45 percent probability, and the pick landed. Bamba opened the scoring in the ninth minute, though Zinckernagel squandered a penalty in the twenty-seventh before converting after the break. The result halted a run of three draws in Fire's last five outings, while Vancouver's recent form,three wins in five,proved insufficient on the road. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
