Two teams desperate to get back to winning ways will battle it out on Wednesday as Chicago Fire FC host Houston Dynamo at the Soldier Field in an MLS inter-conference match. Chicago Fire have now gone six matches without a win and currently sit bottom of the Eastern Conference table.On the other hand, Houston Dynamo have gone winless in three games after pulling an upset over second-placed Sporting Kansas City earlier this month. Chicago Fire look the more weary of the two, having lost 4-1 to Orlando City this past weekend.It was quite a frustrating encounter for Chicago as they had two goals ruled out by the VAR in addition to hitting the woodwork twice. Chicago coach Raphael Wicky spoke to the press after the game and acknowledged the need to improve on either ends of the pitch despite all their bad luck.“All these little things right now are not going our way. Sometimes in life that happens. I don't know why, I don't have the answer for that. I am still pleased with a lot of things I see, creating so many chances, scoring goals. “I say the same as what I always do: We have to keep working at it, but we have to become better in both ends otherwise we will talk all year about that, and at the end of the day it will be a fancy hand. It's nice to play good, it's nice to create, but we got to be better on both ends of the field.”"It's nice to create, but we've got to be better on both ends of the field.”— Chicago Fire FC (@ChicagoFire) September 20, 2020Houston Dynamo, meanwhile, came back from being 2-0 behind to draw level with Minnesota on Saturday.
