Langley, BC - Vancouver FC heads to Winnipeg to take on Valour FC for their third and final game in eight days. Vancouver will be on the hunt for their second consecutive win after securing a 2-0 victory against Forge FC on Tuesday night.

MATCH STORYLINES:

Victorious at the Park:VFC secured a historic first victory at Willoughby Park with a 2-0 win vs FOR. The match was also a collection of firsts for Ameer Kinani who got his first professional start, scored his first professional goal and assist on Tuesday.

Learning to Adapt: VFC will be without Pele Martínez, Nima Moazeni Zadeh, and Rocco Romeo (suspensions) for the next match against VAL. However, the BC-side has shown that age is just a number by rostering one of the youngest starting XI in the CPL against FOR (average age of 21-years-old) and is second in the league for most U-21 minutes (trailing VAL by 180 minutes).

Cleaning up the Box: VFC's captain and goalkeeper, Callum Irving, registered his third clean sheet of the season which now ranks him tied-second in the CPL for shutouts. The 30-year-old is also ranked third in the league for saves (32) and second for total passes (353), among goalkeepers.
