Only a win will satisfy the home supporters in this Deering High School Memorial Field clash with AC Connecticut, having a healthy lead on the opposition in the PDL table.

There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a PDL game only three days ago. That game was also an away game, at Seacoast United Phantoms. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary. That game was a home fixture for AC Connecticut, against Seacoast United Phantoms. But now it's all about beating Portland Phoenix!
