Lineups

Squad Ratings

The overall squad rating for New England Revolution is 6.96, compared to 6.95 for Chicago Fire. This metric is derived from each player's average match rating across all league appearances this season — anything above 7.00 is considered strong, while below 6.50 signals inconsistency. New England Revolution's highest-rated starter is M. Turner (7.79), while Chicago Fire's best-rated player is H. Cuypers (7.83).

Attacking Output

The starting XI of New England Revolution have contributed 12 goals and 6 assists this season, led by C. Gil (4G). Chicago Fire's starters account for 17 goals and 8 assists, spearheaded by H. Cuypers (11G). Goals reflect clinical finishing and chance creation, while assists highlight the ability to unlock defences through through-balls, crosses, and set pieces.

Defensive Solidity

New England Revolution deploy 3 defenders rated 6.64 on average, against Chicago Fire's 3-man backline averaging 6.63. Higher defensive ratings suggest better positional awareness, fewer individual errors, and a greater likelihood of keeping clean sheets. The rating accounts for tackles won, interceptions, aerial duels, and blocks throughout the season.

Midfield Control

New England Revolution field 5 midfielders averaging 6.98, versus Chicago Fire's 4 rated 6.70. Midfield ratings reflect passing accuracy, interceptions, key passes, and overall control of possession — the team that dominates midfield typically dictates the tempo and territory of the match.

Forward Threat

New England Revolution start 2 forward(s) averaging 6.96, compared to 3 for Chicago Fire averaging 7.50. Forward ratings capture shot accuracy, movement off the ball, dribbling success, and involvement in build-up play — they indicate who carries the greater goal threat on the day.

Passing & Build-Up

Passing accuracy averages 82% for New England Revolution and 82% for Chicago Fire. Higher passing accuracy generally indicates a possession-based style with patient build-up through the thirds, while lower figures may suggest a more direct, counter-attacking approach with long balls and quick transitions.

Discipline

New England Revolution's starters have collected 9 yellow cards this season, compared to 14 for Chicago Fire. Yellow cards reflect how aggressively a team presses and tackles — a high count may indicate a physical, high-pressing style but also risks suspensions and late free-kicks in dangerous areas.

Age & Experience

The average age of New England Revolution's starting XI is 26.5 (youngest: I. Feingold (21), oldest: C. Gil (33)), while Chicago Fire average 27.3 (youngest: C. Brady (21), oldest: P. Zinckernagel (31)). Younger squads typically offer pace, energy, and pressing intensity, while experienced lineups bring composure, game management, and the ability to handle high-pressure moments.

Squad Depth

New England Revolution's starters average 8 league appearances each, versus 8 for Chicago Fire. High appearance counts indicate an established, well-drilled unit that the manager trusts week in and week out. Lower figures may suggest rotation, injuries, or emerging players still earning their place in the team.
