Rhode Island FC host Monterey Bay FC in a USL Championship league fixture. CheckLive's model does not currently favour either side, so the contest is wide open; a draw is just as plausible as a win for either team.
Rhode Island have won three of their last five, beating Colorado Springs Switchbacks 2-0, Pittsburgh Riverhounds 1-0 and Hartford Athletic 1-0, with defeats to FC Tampa Bay Rowdies 0-2 and Birmingham Legion 0-1. Monterey Bay have lost four of their last five, including a 2-5 reverse at New Mexico United, with their only point in that run coming in a 1-1 draw against Oakland Roots.
The two sides have met twice before, and both games have ended level, the most recent being a 1-1 draw in May. With no favourite identified, the key is whether Monterey can halt their poor run or whether Rhode Island's recent form carries through. Expect a closely fought match, with the draw a real possibility.
