How about Roots SC?
The hosts for Wednesday’s match enter with a 1-8-3 record after Sunday’s 3-1 defeat to the same Defiance side SRFC faced on Thursday. After a scoreless draw with Republic FC on July 7, Oakland Roots SC has since dropped five straight entering Wednesday while conceding three goals in three of those five outings.
Roots SC’s struggles in its inaugural USL Championship year continue, as the side is last in the league in goals (8) and shots (98). They are the only club in the USL Championship this season yet to record 10 goals and 100 shots.
