Player to watch: Hugo Cuypers

Hugo Cuypers is the key man behind our primary New York Red Bulls vs Chicago Fire predictions. He is the leading goalscorer for the visitors, with five goals to his name and we just can’t imagine coach Gregg Berhalter benching him at Red Bull Arena this week.

Second player to watch: Peter Stroud

We have faith in Peter Stroud. He is the top creator for the Bulls during the 2025 Major League Soccer campaign thus far, as he supplied teammates with two valuable assists.
