EL PASO, TX — Miami FC is gearing up for a crucial match against El Paso Locomotive FC on Saturday, marking the second encounter between the two teams. The first match, held last August, saw Miami dominate with a 4-0 victory at home. Following a recent loss to Loudoun, Miami FC aims to bounce back and secure three points against the struggling El Paso team, which currently sits at the bottom of the USL Championship Western Conference. Despite the setback in Virginia, Miami's Rocco Genzano found the net early in the last match, scoring just two minutes in. The previous encounter with El Paso also featured a late goal from Miami's Gabriel Cabral, highlighting the team's offensive capabilities. Miami FC is looking to capitalize on El Paso's current form, as the Texas side holds a disappointing record of 3-4-14, totaling just 13 points this season. El Paso will be relying on key players Amando Moreno and Justin Dhillon, who are the team's top scorers. Additionally, the match will see the return of two former Miami players, Bolu Akinyode and Joaquin Rivas, who played for Miami FC in the last two seasons. El Paso is eager to secure its fourth win of the season against Miami. Kickoff is scheduled for 9 p.m. EST at Southwest University Park, with viewing options available on TV33, ESPN+, and YouTube.
