The Fire emerged victorious when these sides last met.

Chicago Fire FC are all set to lock horns with New England Revolution in the Eastern Conference fixture of the Major League Soccer 2025 season. The interesting contest between these clubs will take place at the SeatGeek Stadium.

Despite being at home, the Fire might be under pressure. They are coming in after a dominating defeat against the Philadelphia Union. The Chicago Fire put in an underwhelming performance, failing to score any goals and conceding four in return.

New England Revolution are also coming in after tasting a defeat, but at the hands of Charlotte FC. It was a close fixture, and the Revs conceded a late goal to drop three points. They are placed 11th on the Eastern Conference MLS points table, and the Fire are 10th on the board.

Players to Watch

Hugo Cuypers (Chicago Fire)

For the hosts, Hugo Cuypers is going to play a crucial role in the final third. In 26 MLS matches this season, the 28-year-old forward from Belgium has scored 15 goals and also has an assist to his name. Even though he failed to score a goal in his last game, Cuypers is going to create problems for the opponent’s defence.

Carles Gil (New England Revolution)

The visitors will have to control the ball in the midfield against the Chicago Fire, and Carles Gil is going to take care of that for his side. In 28 Major League Soccer appearances, the 32-year-old midfielder has 20 goal involvements to his name. Gil is going to be a big issue for the hosts as he can also play as a forward.
