Chicago need a single point at Gillette Stadium to clinch a playoff place, and that changes how I read the last meeting between these two. Last month Chicago had 61% of the ball and 22 shots to New England's four and still lost 2-1, with Men in Red 97 putting both Revolution goals down to transition moments. Repeating that approach would mean committing numbers forward with a centre-back pairing that hasn't played together: Jack Elliott is suspended, Sam Rogers is injured, and Andreas Hanche-Olsen looks set for his first MLS start. A side that only needs a draw has every reason not to.
