Miami travels up to South Carolina for its next road match of the 2024 USL Championship season following its close loss at home last weekend to Rhode Island FC.

Miami just barely lost to Rhode Island after a tight game ending 3-2 in favor of the away team. Miami will be looking to keep the scoring momentum going and secure three points this weekend as they face last season's Eastern Conference champions.

Miami forward Frank Lopez has scored four goals in the past six games for the team and will be a key player to look out for when watching Miami's squad this Friday. Lopez has the second most goals scored for Miami FC this season following Allen Gavilanes.

Roberto Molina, who was traded to Miami from Indy Eleven earlier this season, scored his first goal for Miami FC and first of the season last Saturday.

Miami will be looking to secure three important points on the road before returning home next weekend to face Oakland Roots SC. Tickets for this match are available at miamifc.com/tickets.
