Embarrassed Wizards hope to catch Fire

Soccer Betting Lines

05/14/2010 - Kansas City, KA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Chicago Fire travel to take on the Kansas City Wizards in a Major League Soccer clash on Saturday night at CommunityAmerica Ballpark.

The Wizards are trying to bounced back from an embarrassing effort against the D.C. United in its last league fixture, a 2-1 los to the previously winless club.

"Shame on me," Wizards coach Peter Vermes told his club's website. "Believe me, I'm going to make sure this stuff doesn't happen in the future because it's not right. I take responsibility for that stuff. It should not happen."

The loss extended the Wizards current winless streak to four games, three of which are losses.

"It's something that we will get right," Vermes said. "That's for sure."

The Fire weren't much better in their last league fixture, a 4-1 loss at Toronto.

"We took one on the chin this past week," Chicago midfielder Logan Pause told his club's website. "There's really no other way to look at it. It's unfortunate. We got exposed, tried to push the game a little bit in the second half, gave up that early goal right at the start of the second half - that hurt us."

The loss dropped the Fire to 2-3-2 this season, an unacceptable record for a team that was considered an Eastern power heading into the season.

Chicago faces some injury concerns heading into the match, with attacker Calen Carr and John Thorrington out, with defender Tim Ward listed as doubtful, all with injuries. Midfielders Baggio Husidic and Justin Mapp and defender Steven Kinney are questionable.

The Wizards (2-3-1) will be without midfielder Zoltan Hercegfalvi, while midfielders Davy Arnaud and Stephane Auvray are questionable with injuries of their own.
