At a glance...
Back in Copa Tejas: SAFC travels to El Paso for its first Copa Tejas rivalry match this season after missing out on the 2024 edition for the first time in three seasons. In 2022 and 2023, SAFC swept both the Copa Tejas trophy for head-to-head record against El Paso and former side RGV Toros, as well as the shield, which is awarded to the USL Championship, MLS, NWSL or USL League One side with the highest point-per-game.
Carrying the Momentum: San Antonio FC is coming off back-to-back shutout wins in the USL Jägermeister Cup, defeating both the reigning USL Championship and USL League One title winners in the same week.
Set the Tempo: SAFC currently has the third-most goals in the Western Conference with 20. San Antonio has outshot its competition in 10 of its first 14 matches and is fourth in the league with 177 shots this season.
