Chicago Fire picked up one point from their two away matches. A 2-2 draw against Philadelphia Union preceded a 2-1 defeat to Columbus Crew.
The Fire made several significant signings in the offseason, including Kellyn Acosta, Hugo Cuypers, and Andrew Gutman.
Unfortunately for Fire manager Frank Klopas, Gutman is set to miss the match due to a hamstring injury.
Gutman is expected to be out until early April. The defender is a miss for the Fire, as they have conceded nine times in four matches.
