Competition: USA USL Championship
Date: Sat 12.October
Match begins: 23:00 (UTC)

Nashville and North Carolina are both riding high in the USL Championship with their 3rd and 11th positions respectively. Expect a great game!

There haven't been much time to rest for the hosts, as they played a USL Championship match only four days ago. This match was also played here. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, North Carolina have had more rest. That game was an away game at Louisville City, so at least Nashville are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
