The Chicago Fire are set to play their penultimate game of the season this Sunday when they travel down south to face Atlanta United.

Players are still fighting to keep their jobs, but from the club’s perspective, these last two games should be about giving younger players a chance to prove themselves and, almost as important, protecting the veterans from possible devastating injury.
