Chicago City Wire

Chicago Fire FC is set to face the New York Red Bulls in an Eastern Conference rematch on Saturday, July 26, at Soldier Field. Chicago returns home after securing four out of six possible points during their recent road trip. They drew 2-2 against Atlanta United FC and defeated CF Montréal, with forward Hugo Cuypers and defender Jack Elliott contributing goals.

New York enters the match following a 5-1 defeat by Inter Miami CF. Despite opening the scoring through Alexander Hack, they conceded five goals to Miami. The Red Bulls will aim for a repeat of their previous victory over Chicago on April 5.

The upcoming game holds significant importance as both teams are closely matched in standings and performance metrics. Chicago's captain Jack Elliott has been pivotal this season, playing almost every match and recently scoring his first goal for the team. Winger Philip Zinckernagel made history by becoming the first player in club history to record ten goals and ten assists in a single season.

Fans can catch the game at 7:30 p.m. CT via MLS Season Pass on Apple TV or local radio stations WLS 890 AM (English) and Que Buena Fire via Uforia App (Spanish). A post-game concert featuring Chance the Rapper will follow as part of the Summer Concert Series presented by Café Bustelo.
