Hartford Athletic desperately need points on Saturday, Sep 26 at 1:00 AM in the USL Championship. With the team sitting in the bottom three, this is quickly becoming a must-win situation.

Hartford Athletic come into this fixture out of form (1W 2L recently). Louisville City FC, meanwhile, arrive in mixed form (2W 2D 1L) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.

Despite playing at home, Hartford Athletic face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. Louisville City FC have won 6 of 10 encounters, with 3 draws. Their last encounter ended in Hartford Athletic won 0–1. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 2.6 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Hartford Athletic a slight edge, but Louisville City FC are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
