It may feel like the 2019 MLS season just started the other day, but this weekend will already be the seventh game of the campaign for the Chicago Fire. It has been an odd year for the Chicago Fire so far, who have only won once but are also in the midst of a three-game unbeaten run.
Fans are still disappointed in the way the Men In Red have begun the season, and the pressure is really on the team to start winning games. But the performances have been better than the results suggest. And they now have a great chance to build on a promising if slightly empty start on Saturday afternoon as Chicago hosts the Colorado Rapids, who have greatly struggled themselves in 2019.
