Foxboro — The New England Revolution are set to take on Minnesota United FC at 2 PM on Saturday at Gillette Stadium in what will be the Revolution's 2017 home opener.

New England enters the match with an 0-2-0 record, sitting dead last in the MLS Eastern Conference and they are hoping that some home cooking will help flip the teams recent fortunes.

Following back to back road losses to the Colorado Rapids and Dallas FC, both by a single goal, the Revolution will turn to stars Kei Kamara, Lee Nguyen, and Diego Fagundez to jump start a sputtering offense that has mustered only one goal in the early part of the season.
