Rhode Island desperately need points on Sunday, Oct 18 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). Pittsburgh Riverhounds, meanwhile, arrive in mixed form (2W 1D 2L) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.

Despite playing at home, Rhode Island face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. Pittsburgh Riverhounds have won 4 of 6 encounters, with 1 draws. Their last encounter ended in Rhode Island won 0–1.

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