For the first time in nearly a month, the Fire will play a game in front of a home crowd as they host Nashville SC on Saturday. The game starts a homestand that will see the team play three games at home in a span of eight days – the last
Following their first back-to-back road wins in a decade, the Fire travel to Orlando City looking for the threepeat away from home - something the team last accomplished in 2009 with a 3-2 victory over the now-defunct Chivas USA. Orlando – currently in 7th place and holding the last “play-off” rather
The Fire officially announced Ousmane Doumbia would be filling the team’s third and final Designated Player (DP) spot, joining the team from sister club FC Lugano. The team confirmed Wednesday that the 31-year-old midfielder from Adjamé, Côte d’Ivoire is on loan from the Swiss club through the end

Fresh off their second road win of the season – and first since beating Inter Miami on March 25 – the Fire continue their road trip out west, this time facing Sporting Kansas City. A glance at the standings suggests that this is one of those forgettable midseason matchups between two teams
Following a much-needed 11-day break, the Fire head to the west coast to face the Portland Timbers, a team that they’ve never beaten in MLS play. The Timbers, who have a game in hand, are narrowly clinging to the ninth place in the West and the last playoff spot

The Fire’s packed schedule continues as they face Toronto FC in the second match of a three-game road swing. Coming off of a disappointing draw against New England – one that saw the team concede three times while ahead, including giving up the tying goal late - the match presents
The Fire went to Foxborough looking to capitalize on the energy they displayed in Austin on Wednesday, where they gave the hosts little reason for hope throughout the game. In the end, they’ll have to content themselves with an away draw that has a bitter tinge of two points
