Oakland Roots and Phoenix Rising FC meet on Sunday, Sep 27 at 4:00 AM in the USL Championship.
Oakland Roots come into this fixture in mixed form (2W 1D 2L). Phoenix Rising FC, meanwhile, arrive in good form (3W 1D 1L recently) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks. Oakland Roots head into this on the back of a defeat, while Phoenix Rising FC arrive off a win — momentum clearly with the visitors.
Despite playing at home, Oakland Roots face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. Phoenix Rising FC have won 4 of 10 encounters, with 5 draws. Their last encounter ended in a 2–2 draw. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 3.0 per game in recent meetings.
Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Oakland Roots a slight edge, but Phoenix Rising FC are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
