Atlanta United at Chicago Fire FC: Match Thread and How to Watch

Tonight, Atlanta United ventures north to the Windy City to pay a visit to the last place Chicago Fire in an attempt to return to winning ways. Things won’t be easy though, as the Five Stripes have a painfully long list of absent players which will make putting a stop to a five match winless run a daunting task. That list grows even more in the next week, so getting all three points from Chicago is even more important for this squad, and the one win in ten Fire are a prime opponent to have.

Broadcast plans for the match are pretty much the same as last weekend’s Red Bulls game, with televised coverage provided through Bally Sports South (cue the boos). For those without a way to watch, you can still listen in on the match in English on Star 94.1 FM and Spanish via La Mejor 1600 AM.
