New England Revolution will be bidding to book their spot in the round of 16 of the 2024 Concacaf Champions Cup when they play host to Independiente de la Chorrera on Thursday night.
The Revs turned in a solid team performance last Wednesday evening when they picked up a 1-0 win over Independiente de la Chorrera in the first leg of the CONCACAF Champions Cup first qualifying round courtesy of a second-half strike from Tomas Chancalay.
However, they fell to a 3-1 defeat to D.C. United in their 2024 MLS regular season opener on Saturday at Audi Field, playing most of the game with 10 men after forward Giacomo Vrioni's first-half red card.
Independiente, on the other hand, will be raring to go after a full week's rest as they were not in league action over the weekend. They currently sit in second place in the Group B of the Panamanian top flight with eight points after five rounds.
