Fire-CD Chivas USA Preview (AP)

 
The Chicago Fire don't seem too concerned about dropping consecutive MLS games for the first time this year. A two-game skid for CD Chivas USA, however, may be a bit more troublesome. Chivas will look to avoid getting shut out in three straight regular season games for the first time in club history Thursday when it hosts the Fire. [link]
