Fire, Crew begin quest to right last year's wrongs (The Associated Press)
The Chicago Fire look for improved fortunes in the second year of a major rebuild and Columbus Crew SC seeks a return to form that led to a 2015 MLS Cup championship berth when they meet in Saturday's season opener at Mapfre Stadium. In 2016, Crew SC had the league's third-worst record, going 8-12 with 14 ties to finish ninth in the MLS Eastern Conference, just ahead of the last-place Fire. Columbus completed 2017 preseason with a 2-0-1 record and beat 2016 MLS Cup champion Seattle to claim the Carolina Challenge Cup championship.
