Nashville SC is close to confirming its place in MLS Cup Playoffs.
Nashville SC hosts the Chicago Fire at Geodis Park on Sept. 19 (Apple TV, 8:30 p.m.).
A win secures Nashville's berth in the postseason, while its place could also be solidified with a draw, depending on results across MLS. First-place NSC (16-6-3, 54 points) holds an eight-point lead over the Vancouver Whitecaps in the race for the Supporters' Shield and a nine-point lead over Inter Miami in the Eastern Conference.
Nashville's last outing saw Sam Surridge bag a stoppage time equalizer to salvage a 2-2 draw away at Miami, while Chicago, now led by legendary striker Robert Lewandowski, most recently fell 2-1 to the New England Revolution.
