The Chicago Fire vs Cruz Azul Leagues Cup match will be broadcast live online and on TV as the men in red play La Maquina at Toyota Park this Tuesday, July 23, at 5:30 PM Pacific.

Chicago Fire is one of the weakest teams in the MLS, currently 10th in the Eastern Conference with just 23 points. The team from the windy city is winless in five consecutive MLS games, coming off a 2-0 loss to the Philadelphia Union.

Chicago has some talented players like German veteran Bastian Schweinsteiger and Argentine playmaker Nicolas Gaitan. Gaitan is clearly the most talented player on the team as he commands the offense from the midfield and is a set-piece specialist.

Cruz Azul started off its Liga MX 2019 Apertura campaign with a scoreless draw against Necaxa and will be looking for a better start in this Leagues Cup. Los Celestes were one of the least active Liga MX teams in the transfer market, but did bring in players like Paraguayan international Juan Escobar and Argentine playmaker Guillermo Fernandez.

Cruz Azul is a title contender in the Liga MX, but can not quite compete with teams like Monterrey, Tigres UANL or Club America. However, the Mexico City team is the heavy favorite in this match as there is a noticeable difference in rosters.
