MEMPHIS, Tennessee - Memphis 901 FC looks to build on the momentum of a win in its last outing in the finale of a four-match road trip tomorrow evening at Charleston Battery at 5:00 (CT).

Adam Najem scored twice within four minutes Wednesday night at Atlanta United 2, turning a 1-0 deficit into a 2-1 lead as 901 FC snapped a three-match losing streak. He scored the equalizer in the 79th minute and then the game-winner in the 83rd minute, giving Memphis a two-goal performance for the first time since Brandon Allen against New York Red Bulls II on July 20.

Tomorrow's match is a makeup of a postponement on Saturday, July 13. Memphis and Charleston played earlier this season on April 27 in Memphis, with Charleston scoring the match's only goal in the third and final minute of stoppage time.

Tomorrow's match also continues a tough stretch on the 901 FC schedule. Including this match, Memphis has played nine matches against teams in the playoff picture at the time Memphis played them in its last 10 outings overall (Charleston, 10th; Tampa Bay, 3rd; Birmingham, 10th; North Carolina, 5th; Saint Louis, 10th; Pittsburgh, 6th; Ottawa, 8th; New York, 2nd; Nashville, 3rd).

After tomorrow, 901 FC returns to AutoZone Park on Saturday for the first time since Aug. 10 for a 7:00 p.m. match against Swope Park Rangers.

Tickets for the remainder of the season are available at www.memphis901fc.com/tickets.
