Chicago Fire FC will resume its preseason training camp, presented by BODYARMOR, with two additional tune-up matches in Austin, Texas this week, as the Club continues to prepare for the 2022 MLS campaign.
On Wednesday, the Fire will play its third official preseason match in 2022, taking on FC Dallas at St. David’s Performance Center at 11:00 a.m. CT. Chicago will then close out its preseason slate against Austin FC on Saturday, Feb. 19 at 12:00 p.m. CT at St. David’s Performance Center.
Both matches will be closed to the public. However, Wednesday’s contest against Dallas will be streamed live on the Club’s website and mobile app. Per league rules, the live stream will only be available to fans within 75 miles of Soldier Field or Toyota Stadium.
