Game Notes:

Team Rosters:

Pittsburgh: Wilmington:

· The Riverhounds (4-15-4) return home in search of their second-straight win over Wilmington Hammerheads FC (6-10-7). The clubs’ first meeting of the season saw the Hounds pour on four goals from four different players (Corey Hertzog, Kevin Kerr, Stephen Okai and Nick Thompson) in a 4-1 route at Legion Stadium – the fifth time since the start of the 2014 season Pittsburgh has scored four or more goals in a match.

· The Hounds currently hold a three-match unbeaten streak against Wilmington, last losing to the Hammerheads, 5-1, on May 23, 2014 – a year that saw the visitors sweep the season series, also winning 4-3 in April. In their past five meetings, the clubs have combined to score 23 goals, with Pittsburgh holding the goals for lead at 12-to-11.

· Both teams enter the match mired in respective slumps. Since winning two-straight at the start of July, the Hammerheads have gone winless in their last seven matches (0-4-3), scoring only two goals in their past four contests. Pittsburgh, meanwhile, fell to the bottom of the Eastern Conference table for the first time this season with its 3-0 defeat at Rochester this past weekend.

· Despite the defeat in Rochester, the Hounds are coming off a win in their last home date – a 2-1 victory over Bethlehem Steel FC. Improving their record to 3-8-1 at Highmark Stadium, the Hounds will look to win back-to-back home matches for the first time since July 4 of last season.
