Having not won since September 10, it seems that Toronto FC have all but stumbled their way into the MLS playoffs. Last weekend's 2-2 draw in Montreal may have showed character, but it was not the late-season result a team looking to go deep into the postseason needs. On Sunday, the Reds have the good fortune of hosting the last-place Chicago Fire at home, in what will be their final opportunity to get back in the win column before the playoffs start.
Historically TFC haven't done particularly well against Chicago, with a 6-9-8 all-time MLS record against them, but they won both previous meetings between the clubs this year—in fact, a 2-1 victory at Toyota Park is the last time Toronto won at all.
