WHAT TO WATCH FOR
The pressure is on as Greenville attempts its last push for playoff positioning. The Triumph will look to earn their fifth post-season appearance this weekend with a win over Chattanooga. The South Carolina team boast one of the easiest remaining schedules, including matches versus two lower seeded opponents.
PLAYERS TO WATCH
CHA- Mayele Malango, midfielder: The Congolese midfielder is coming off a stellar match against Central Valley where he recorded a goal and earned TOTW honors. Despite Chattanooga's challenges within the table, they do not lack attacking threats. The Red Wolves have tallied multi-goal games in five out of their last six matches.
GVL- Lyam MacKinnon, forward: On the other side, MacKinnon is very familiar with racking up goals against Chattanooga. The Villanova alum notched four goals during the two teams' first meeting in June. Wednesday night, MacKinnon terrorized the Fuego goal to no avail, but Saturday could give the forward another chance at the net.
NEWS AND NOTES
Playoff Picture:
Greenville currently sits in the fifth seed and in prime position to host a home playoff match. With a match in hand against Charlotte, Greenville will hope to secure wins in its final matches or that the Jacks drop some points this weekend.
