Orlando's last match up against the Ohio side saw the Lions make a second half comeback that resulted in a 2-2 draw at Lower.com Field.

Quote of the Week:

"They are a good rival who have been very well coached. We had a good result in Columbus and we had good experiences in that game, and we are trying to train, simulate, and prepare for the game. Like always, we want to optimize the players in the best way possible and use this time to allow some of the player to rest, but now it's full steam ahead because we want to be ready."

- Head Coach Oscar Pareja
