Chicago Fire FC will remain on the lakefront for an Eastern Conference matchup against Atlanta United FC tonight.
The Men in Red enter today in strong form, earning their second win in a row against an Eastern Conference rival with a 1-0 victory over Nashville SC on April 4. Winger Philip Zinckernagel opened his 2026 account with the fastest goal in Club history, a 16th-second strike that was also the 10th fastest goal in league history. The opening salvo was the difference in the match as Chris Brady recorded four saves in his third clean sheet of the season, enough to hand Nashville their first loss in MLS play this year.
Watch live on Apple TV or listen on WLS-AM 890, 106.7 FM HD2, or the Uforia App by TREBEL.
Kickoff is set for 7:30 PM CT. | |

KEYS TO THE MATCH 🔥
pres. by Hyundai | |

1 |
Man on Fire: Homegrown goalkeeper Chris Brady was selected to the MLS Team of the Match for his third shutout in six game last week against Nashville. His current hot form will be key against a tough Eastern Conference foe like Atlanta. | |
|
2 |
The Magnificent Seven: Chicago’s number seven, Maren Haile-Selassie, could make his seventh appearance of the season against Atlanta and 96th overall with Chicago. His contributions have been key all season, whether on defense, as a winger, the bench or on the starting XI. | |
|
3 |
He Got Game: Philip Zinckernagel scored his first goal of the 2026 season 16 seconds into last Saturday’s match. The defending Team MVP is heating up at the right time, with two road matches next week before three straight at home. | |
