On the other hand, the Chicago Fire FC enters the matchup seeking redemption. Despite being in 11th place in the Eastern Conference standings, with only one point in two games, the team has shown potential with key players like Xherdan Shaqiri, who has already scored a goal this season and is a well-known threat to the opposing defense. However, the recent history against the Columbus Crew is not favorable, making the Fire's task even more challenging.

In addition to the sporting excitement, fans also have reasons to be excited about the special Star Wars theme at the event. With themed activities and attractions, including the presence of iconic saga characters, the night promises to be memorable for fans of all ages. Fans are encouraged to wear Star Wars costumes and join in the celebrations, making the stadium atmosphere even more exhilarating.
