Louisville City FC will take aim at its next title on the road, traveling to play San Antonio FC on Sunday, Nov. 13, in the USL Championship Final.

Kickoff is set for 8:30 p.m. ET at 8,000-capacity Toyota Field in San Antonio. The final will air live on ESPN2 and ESPN Deportes with expanded pregame and postgame radio coverage also on ESPN Louisville's 680/105.7.

Ticket information - should there be any availability for traveling fans - will be communicated in due time. The club will relay local watch party details as they're available as well.

San Antonio FC defeated Colorado Springs Switchbacks SC by a 2-0 score in Sunday night's Western Conference Final to advance. On Saturday, LouCity defeated the Tampa Bay Rowdies, 1-0, in the Eastern Conference Final.

Higher-seeded clubs receive home-field advantage throughout the USL Championship Playoffs. LouCity and San Antonio were both No. 1s in their respective conferences, but San Antonio earned more points than City (77 to 72) during the regular season.

Boasting two stars over its crest, LouCity remains the only club to win consecutive league crowns, accomplished in 2017 and 2018. Both of those victories came in Louisville. This will mark the club's first USL Championship Final played away.

Operated by the NBA franchise San Antonio Spurs' ownership group since launched in 2016, San Antonio FC is poised for its first USL Championship Final appearance. The club features a pair of All-League First Team selections in goalkeeper Jordan Farr and defender Mitchell Taintor.

The final - which before this year has never been contested between a pair of top seeds - will mark the first meeting between LouCity and San Antonio.
