RECENT FORM VS. CHICAGO FIRE
This will be the 61st regular-season match between the New England Revolution and Chicago Fire, and the 81st overall meeting since the Fire’s inaugural season in 1998. These two sides' exciting, long-standing history includes 15 heated playoff matches throughout a decade, specifically between the years of 2000 and 2009.
The Revs and Fire met twice in the 2018 campaign and finished with honors even both times, first at SeatGeek Stadium in June when the clubs finished in a hard-fought 1-1 draw, and then again in September at Gillette Stadium where the teams closed the series playing to a 2-2 draw. The Revs continue a busy stretch with Wednesday's game against Chicago being one of five they will play in only 15 days, and they'll look to leave Bridgeview on a positive note.
Overall Record vs. Chicago: 21-26-13
