It's no vacation for neither Grande nor OKC Energy as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

OKC Energy form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for OKC Energy, who have the fewest scored goals (12) in USL Championship, so far with only 5 points returning home. The records show 1-2-5 (win-draw-lose). Energy are desperate to end a 13-game winless run, as they haven't won a game since the Austin Bold fixture. The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on J. Pascarella, the Energy manager, as the last three away games were defeats.
It might be tough going out on the road again for Energy, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 2-4 versus Rio Grande Valley (placed 5th). A 2-3 defeat away at Tulsa Roughnecks before that.
