Birmingham Legion desperately need points on Sunday, Aug 2 at 2:00 AM in the USL Championship. With the team sitting in the bottom three, this is quickly becoming a must-win situation.

Birmingham Legion come into this fixture drawing too many games (3D in last 5). Rhode Island, meanwhile, arrive in mixed form (2W 1D 2L) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.

Despite playing at home, Birmingham Legion face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. Rhode Island have won 4 of 6 encounters, with 1 draws. Their last encounter ended in Rhode Island won 1–3.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Birmingham Legion a slight edge, but Rhode Island are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
