Chicago Fire vs. Columbus Crew SC A pair of Eastern Conference foes looking to rebound from weekend road losses meet at Toyota Park when the slumping Chicago Fire host Columbus Crew SC Thursday night. The Fire conceded in stoppage time in a 2-1 defeat to the Montreal Impact, their eighth consecutive league defeat, while Crew SC dropped a 3-1 decision to Atlanta United on Sunday at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. The teams split a pair of earlier regular-season matches, with the Fire holding serve at home, 1-0, on a Nemanja Nikolic goal in April, and Crew SC responded with a 3-0 victory at MAPFRE Stadium behind a Gyasi Zardes brace a month later.
