New England Revolution host Chicago Fire at Gillette Stadium on Saturday, October 17 (7:30 PM ET \/ 6:30 PM CT \/ 4:30 PM PT).<\/strong><\/p>\n

New England Revolution have no fresh fitness concerns to report, with Carles Gil expected to once again dictate play after a season that has brought 12 goals and 76 chances created from midfield. Dor Turgeman and Peyton Miller, both on seven goals apiece, give the hosts two out-and-out strikers in form, while Alhassan Yusuf adds a further five goals from midfield. Chicago Fire are similarly able to call on their full complement of attacking options: Maren Haile-Selassie has top-scored for the visitors with 10 goals, Philip Zinckernagel has created 60 chances from midfield, and Robert Lewandowski has chipped in with 6 goals despite limited minutes up front.<\/p>\n

New England arrive on the back of consecutive defeats, including a 0-3 home loss to Seattle Sounders, but they remain fourth in the Eastern Conference<\/a> on 46 points and already have the measure of this opponent, having won 2-1 at Chicago back on September 13. The Fire, third with 48 points and a stronger +11 goal difference, have steadied since that defeat with home wins over NYCFC and Vancouver Whitecaps. Both sides have goals in them at both ends of the pitch, and the reverse fixture’s shape looks set to repeat itself at Gillette Stadium.<\/p>\n\n\n
