The Fire’s final midweek game and final roadgame of the season is Wednesday in Charlotte. The Fire, who were eliminated from postseason contention with their 2-1 loss to Toronto last Saturday, are currently in last place in the East and will hope to use a win to get themselves
With the Fire officially eliminated from postseason contention, in a macro sense, the season is over. That isn’t to say that there are no stakes for the team in the final weeks of the season. Here are some storylines for both the team and individual players to keep an
Bridgeview, Ill. — Toronto and the Fire both had a singular aim going into their match at SeatGeek Stadium on Saturday night – get a win, and three points. As has happened all too often for both teams this season they didn’t find the result they wanted, as both teams played
The Chicago Fire have officially been eliminated from playoff contention, with Saturday's 1-1 draw with Toronto FC ensuring this outcome. This extends the team's drought to seven seasons – the longest active streak in Major League Soccer. The Fire's unceremonious elimination was a long time
The Fire are set to host Toronto FC at SeatGeek Stadium in Bridgeview. The last time these two teams met, the Fire walked away with a 4-1 victory and their first road win of the season. With the Fire's playoff hopes dim but not extinguished and Toronto'

The Chicago Fire traveled to Montréal last weekend knowing that they needed to win to keep their already slim playoff hopes alive. They didn’t. Now, with three games still to play, their season is all but mathematically over. The only scenario that sees them jump to ninth in the
Less than six weeks after being traded from CF Montréal to the Chicago Fire, Ariel Lassiter was back in Stade Saputo, Montréal, facing his former club. Lassiter, who turns 30 this week, started the game, making it his third straight start since his arrival in Chicago, and played all 90
MONTRÉAL, Québec — Few stadiums in MLS are more difficult to play at than Montréal's Stade Saputo. The Chicago Fire did themselves no favors Saturday night when they travelled there, however. A 2-0 defeat – featuring goals either side of the half from Josef Martínez and Caden Clark – consigned the
The Fire face the team that gave them their first win of the season looking for a win and three points over CF Montréal in another matchup between two teams that are hoping against increasingly long odds to battle their way into the postseason. Since the Fire last played CF
As the first leg of the 2015 CONCACAF Champions League final neared its conclusion, everything seemed to be going perfectly for the Montréal Impact. Head coach Frank Klopas had successfully steered the Impact through a difficult run, and they led Mexican powerhouse Club América 1-0 in the 88th minute at
Earlier this week, EA Sports released player ratings for their game, EAFC 25, which comes today. Only 25 Fire players from the 31-man roster will be represented in the Ultimate Team game mode due to loans and second-team commitments.

The Fire are back in the belle province for a game against CF Montréal in their penultimate road game of the season, as both teams try to salvage results from what have been disappointing campaigns this year. The last time these two teams met at Stade Saputo, the game ended
Nashville, Tenn. — Sometimes, you can't you just can't quite get in tune. The Fire traveled to Nashville looking for their first-ever win in Tennessee’s largest city but again fell short, falling 1-0 to their hosts off a goal by Sam Surridge. Despite radical changes to
For the last time of 2024, the Fire face an opponent they haven’t yet faced this year (barring a run to the MLS Cup final, which I think we can all agree is highly unlikely) in Nashville SC. The game is the sixth regular-season matchup between the two teams
