Spring Season Champion Indy Eleven (6W-3D-5L, 12 points Fall; 10-9-5, 39 Combined) has hit a rough patch over the past five games, alternating between losses and draws. Most recently, the club fell, 2-1, to the Fort Lauderdale Strikers last Saturday. Aside from one game, the recent string of results has come on the road, where the Boys in Blue have had their fair share of struggles this year. At Carroll Stadium, though, it has been a much different story for the Eleven, which is currently unbeaten in all of its contests at home in 2016 and on a 14-game streak without a loss dating back to last year. The team’s leading scorer, Eamon Zayed, has scored on a similar trend to the team’s performances, knocking in 10 of his 12 goals in Indy.

Miami FC was in action on Wednesday night and the side continued its hot streak with a 1-0 win over the Carolina RailHawks. Dario Cvitanich scored his ninth goal of the year as Miami (7-4-2, 25 Fall; 8-8-7. 32 Combined) extended its unbeaten run to six games. With the victory in midweek action, Miami jumped into second place as it continues its push towards a Fall Season title or postseason berth through the Combined Standings. Miami is now five points behind the New York Cosmos and four points back of Minnesota United for fourth place in the Combined Standings.
