Rhode Island desperately need points on Thursday, Oct 1 at 1:30 AM in the USL Championship. With the team sitting in the bottom three, this is quickly becoming a must-win situation.

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

Head-to-head records offer little separation — Rhode Island and Indy Eleven have split their 5 meetings almost evenly (2W–1D–2W). Their last encounter ended in Rhode Island won 1–0. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 2.8 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: Indy Eleven's quality should tell even on the road. Rhode Island will push, but the visitors have too much class. Indy Eleven to win.
