Louisville City FC coach James O'Connor will be available at 3 p.m. tomorrow, Monday, October 16th, for his regular weekly press conference outside the club's locker room at Louisville Slugger Field, 401 W Main Street, Louisville.

Louisville City FC will host Bethlehem Steel FC in Round 1 of the USL 2017 Playoffs at Slugger Field this Friday, October 20, kickoff 7:30pm.

The first-round, post-season fixture was finalized after Steel FC drew, 1-1, with St. Louis FC on Sunday afternoon, pushing the Pennsylvania side into eighth place in the final USL regular season standings with 44 points, and eighth in the Eastern Conference playoff seedings. After winning the Eastern Conference regular season, LouCity (18 wins, 6 losses and 8 ties) are ranked first seed in the USL Eastern side of the post-season playoff bracket, and now host the bottom-seeded team, Steel FC (12-12-8) in the opening round.

Lou City have already met Bethlehem twice during the regular season, winning the first meeting 3-1 away from home, on August 20, at Goodman Stadium in Bethlehem, and tying the second meeting, 2-2, on September 15, at Slugger Field.

City rounded out the regular season in style with a 3-1 win on Saturday night over the Richmond Kickers in front of 9,103 at Slugger Field.
