New England Revolution News Release
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – The New England Revolution (8-17-4; 28 pts.) will host Nashville SC (8-13-9; 33 pts.) on the club’s annual Fight Childhood Cancer Night, Saturday at Gillette Stadium. The match kicks off at 7:30 p.m. ET and airs on MLS Season Pass on the Apple TV app in English and Spanish. Listen to Brad Feldman and Charlie Davies call the match on 98.5 The Sports Hub (WBZ-FM), or 1260 AM Nossa Radio USA in Portuguese.
The Revolution return to Gillette Stadium for their penultimate home match of the 2024 MLS regular season, looking to keep the playoff line within reach as they host Nashville SC. The Revolution have collected a result in six straight home games dating back to July 20, including Leagues Cup, as they look to bounce back from a five-game winless skid in league play. The Revolution will have to do it without Head Coach Caleb Porter on the sidelines, as he is forced to miss Saturday’s match due to yellow card accumulation.
Against Nashville, the Revs enter the weekend with an even 2-2-3 mark, with one win and two draws in the three previous meetings in Foxborough. New England aims to sweep the season series after collecting a 2-1 victory on the road in their first meeting of the campaign on June 1. Carles Gil was involved in both goals, scoring one on his own and setting up Esmir Bajraktarević for the other.
Entering the weekend, Gil remains one assist away from becoming the club’s standalone leader in MLS assists; he is currently tied with Steve Ralston (73). The Revolution captain has reached the scoresheet in each of the last four home games and currently ranks second in MLS with 85 chances created this season.
New England met Nashville for a second time this year in Leagues Cup 2024 action on Aug. 6, playing to a 1-1 draw in regulation followed by a shootout win to close the group stage. Since then, the Boys in Gold have collected a 2-2-1 record in MLS play, with two wins in their last three games. Forward Sam Surridge, Nashville’s leading scorer, has carried the attack with three goals in the last two matches. Nashville features a new voice on its sideline as former U.S. Men’s National Team assistant B.J. Callaghan was appointed as the club’s new head coach in July.
