FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – Only two teams in Major League Soccer have yet to play in front of their home fans, but on Saturday afternoon the New England Revolution will finally make their belated return to Gillette Stadium.
New England’s original home opener – scheduled for March 11 against Orlando City SC – was postponed because of extreme cold in the Northeast, but the forecast for this weekend shows highs in the mid-50s, so weather shouldn’t play a factor when the Revs host expansion side Minnesota United FC.
“We’ve been really excited to play our first game at home,” said Kei Kamara.
