Game Notes:

Team Rosters:

Pittsburgh: Cincinnati:

· The Pittsburgh Riverhounds (6-16-7) wrap up their 2016 campaign against FC Cincinnati (15-6-8). Their rivals from the Queen City, Cincinnati makes its second visit to Highmark Stadium this month with the last meeting between the clubs resulting in a nil-nil draw. On the season, Cincinnati leads the head-to-head series thanks to a 1-0 victory at home this past May, as the clubs have combined for just one goal with Cincinnati holding a 21-to-15 shot advantage.

· Cincinnati enters the match having already clinched a home playoff match and the third spot in the Eastern Conference table, while the Hounds, though eliminated from playoff contention, have a chance to move up from No. 13 to No. 12 with a win or tie and Toronto FC II loss. Pittsburgh will also look to capture points in its fourth-straight home match on Saturday, which would be the club’s best streak since the 2015 team also ended the season on a four-game unbeaten streak at Highmark Stadium.

· Saturday’s match presents the final opportunity for the Hounds to pick up a win against a team with a winning record this season. The club currently holds a 0-12-3 record against the top seven in the East.

· With his 13th goal on the season this past weekend, Corey Hertzog sits at sixth in the USL in goals scored and two behind Golden Boot leaders Sean Okoli of Cincinnati and Jack McBean of Los Angeles. The Hounds forward will also crack the top-10 in franchise history in goals scored with his next tally – tying himself for 10th with Justin Evans and Michael Butler

– while two tallies will bump him up to tied for eighth with Said Ali and Gary DePalma.
