One Knoxville SC host Portland Hearts of Pine in USL League One, with neither side holding a clear edge. CheckLive have no favourite for this one, which reflects how close the contest looks on paper. Both teams need points, and a draw is a very realistic outcome.
One Knoxville have won two of their last five, beating Sarasota Paradise 2-1 and Fort Wayne FC 2-1, while losing to Charlotte Independence 1-3, Chattanooga Red Wolves 0-1 and Av Alta FC 2-3. Portland are winless in five, with defeats to Corpus Christi FC 0-2, Union Omaha SC 1-2 and AC Boise 1-2, plus draws against Greenville Triumph SC 3-3 and Sarasota Paradise 2-2 in a friendly.
The head-to-head record is firmly in One Knoxville's favour: four meetings, two wins and two draws, with no Portland victory. The most recent clash, in April, ended 0-0. Given Portland's recent struggles and One Knoxville's inconsistent form, this has the feel of a tight, low-scoring affair.
