EL PASO LOCOMOTIVE FC

The Locos arrive unbeaten in its last five home matches and unbeaten in nine of their last 11. Though the Locos are out of playoff contention, last week's comeback draw against San Antonio FC showcased how determined El Paso are to finish the season strong and it aims to continue the run against Orange County SC.

"We need to finish the season stronger, playing well and being solid because we have to build on that," Head Coach Wilmer Cabrera said after the San Antonio match. "At this point, the fans, the front office, the players and us as a staff feel like we're building something positive. We're changing the mentality, we're changing the face of the club to be a team that [previously] wasn't with spirit, attitude to be the opposite. Today, we did it... and that's the spirit we need to have for the team every time."

SAN ANTONIO FC

Orange County SC will come in ready to battle as a win could position them much closer to a postseason berth. OCSC has hit a bit of positive form heading into the midweek contest, unbeaten in their last five contests with goalkeeper Colin Shutler stepping up to record four shutouts.
