#3 - First Ever Meeting
at Sporting JAX - November 22
On November 22, history will be made as Fort Lauderdale United faces Sporting JAX for the first time in the Gainbridge Super League.

#4 - First Half Finale
vs. Spokane Zephyr FC - December 20
Closing out the first half of the season and the calendar year, Fort Lauderdale hosts Spokane Zephyr FC in a potentially pivotal matchup at Beyond Bancard Field.
