Chicago Stars host Boston Legacy FC on April 25, 2026, in an NWSL regular season match that kicks off at 6:30 PM ET. The meeting brings together two teams stuck near the bottom of the standings, with the Stars in 14th place and Boston in 16th.
For viewers in the United States, the match will stream live on Fubo for subscribers, air on Ion on linear television and be available free on Tubi. It gives both clubs a chance to interrupt runs that have dragged them deeper into the table.
Chicago enter after losing three consecutive league matches following a brief bright spot in late March. Their only win in their last five NWSL matches was a 2-1 victory over Kansas City Current on March 22, but since then they have fallen 4-0 to Angel City FC and 3-0 to Orlando Pride. Across their last five league matches, they have scored three goals and conceded ten.
Boston’s slide has been even harder to stop. The club has lost each of its last four NWSL matches, including a 1-0 defeat to San Diego Wave FC on April 3 and a 3-0 loss to Houston Dash on March 21. During that four-match losing run, Boston has not managed a win or a draw.
No team news was available for either side at the time of the article, leaving the matchup to be defined by form rather than personnel. That makes this a simple but telling test: Chicago and Boston are meeting at a point in the season when neither side can afford to let a winnable home game slip.
The result will matter less for style than for survival in the middle and lower reaches of the NWSL table. A win would not solve everything for either club, but for one of them it would at least stop the bleeding.
