Impact Haile-Selassie has taken four shots and created nine chances across his last four games, as the Fire are undefeated with him as a starter on the right wing.

Impact Kamara continues to turn up with big goals in big moments. The 38-year-old is up to 142 career MLS goals, just three behind league legend Landon Donovan. With Chicago lacking go-to attacking options, look for Kamara to continue to supply attacking contributions when given the opportunity.

The team do not want to rush his return. with the midfielder being an essential part of the squad after totaling seven goals and six assists during his first season in 2022. The last thing Chicago would like is for him to be out long-term. If he does not start, then Brian Gutierrez will continue to take his place in the lineup.
