The Fire (8-13-8, 32 points) are coming off a scoreless draw against the Columbus Crew on Saturday night at Lower.com Field. Goalkeeper Gabriel Slonina made a career-high nine saves against Columbus, and his 12 shutouts are currently good for the third-most in Major League Soccer.
Miami (10-12-6, 36 points) returns to action after a bye weekend, having fallen 1-0 against the Columbus Crew on Wednesday, Aug. 31, at Lower.com Field. Miami’s 36 points have them sitting in eighth place in the Eastern Conference just below the playoff line, behind FC Cincinnati’s 38 points. It is the third consecutive road game for Phil Neville’s side as they look to snap a two-game losing streak.
