A few weeks ago on the CHGO Fire podcast, I mentioned that the Fire would need 12 points out of 15 from their final five games in July before I’d consider them back in the playoff race.

Which Fire team will we see in tonight’s matchup against the San Jose Earthquakes? The one that, last time out, knocked off the Eastern Conference’s best team, the Philadelphia Union?
