CONCUSSION AWARENESS NIGHT

In partnership with ThinkTaylor, the Revs will host their annual Concussion Awareness Night on Saturday when St. Louis CITY SC visits Gillette Stadium for the first time.

Fans attending the match should pick up a ThinkTaylor Pledge Card upon entry (available at all stadium gates), as the cards will be used as part of an "Orange Out" in the 20th minute of Saturday night's game. Revolution legend and St. Louis native Taylor Twellman will also lead the crowd in reciting the #TTPledge at halftime.

For those interested in learning more about ThinkTaylor, an informational table will be set up in Fan Zone, where fans will also be encouraged to sign the #TTPledge Wall.

RECENT FORM VS. ST. LOUIS CITY SC

This will be the first-ever meeting between the Revs and St. Louis CITY SC, who entered MLS as an expansion team for the 2023 season. While there's currently no history between these clubs, the Revs have been inextricably linked with the city of St. Louis through players like Taylor Twellman, Steve Ralston, and Pat Noonan, among others.

New England (8-15-2, 26 pts.) returned from the Leagues Cup break with a pair of road games, rolling to a 5-0 win in Montréal before suffering a 2-0 loss this past weekend at Real Salt Lake. Those results leave the Revs five points back of the playoff places in the East but with multiple games in hand on every team they're chasing, a valuable asset with just seven weeks remaining until Decision Day on October 19. The Revs will lean heavily on their home form during that stretch, as all four of their remaining games at Gillette Stadium are against opponents currently below the playoff line in their respective conferences.

One of those teams is St. Louis (5-10-12, 27 pts.), currently 13th in the West and nine points back of the final playoff place with just seven games to play. They are, however, coming off a potentially season-saving victory, claiming a 2-1 win over the West-leading LA Galaxy this past Sunday thanks to goals from Cedric Teuchert and Marcel Hartel. But in order to reach the postseason for a second straight year, St. Louis will need to find a way to win away from home, as they'll enter the weekend as the only team in MLS yet to claim a victory on their travels (0-6-7).

After their brief return to Foxborough, the Revs will be back on the road next Saturday night for a visit to Orlando City SC (Sept. 14), a trip that will begin a three-game week that also includes meetings with CF Montréal (Sept. 18) and Charlotte FC (Sept. 21).

SHOW YOUR COLORS

Saturday night the Revolution will be wearing the "Boston Tea Party" kit, which will serve as the club's primary uniform for the 2024 and 2025 MLS seasons.

Inspired by Boston's proud history of positive defiance, the kit commemorates the recent 250th anniversary of the Boston Tea Party in December 1773. The shirt design is highlighted by red and white vertical waves on the jersey's front, which represent the ripples in the Boston Harbor made by East India Training Company's tea creates as the American revolutionaries emptied 45 tons of tea into the water.

The navy jersey features red shoulders with three white stripes, a throwback to earlier Revolution jerseys, paired with navy shorts and navy socks, featuring red and white striping on top.
