Feeling good are the home team, following a come from behind win away, now they are home, having lost but once this season but this team is up one point on them with 41, each are well positioned for the coming playoffs. NCFC just took down Memphis 901 2-1, the 5th road win of the year. Pitt. is  on a roll, 5 wins in a row, no losses since July 7, last game a 2-1 win facing league leaders NYRBII Wed. eve. The game tonight will be the 2nd and last game between the two, the visitors prevailed 1-0 at Highmark, on the strength of a Robbie Meretz 27' goal. The 2 are well matched as they each utilize their well balanced attacks and stout defenses. WIth just 3 teams having players with 5+ goals each team has one so there may be some fireworks. NCFC has Steve Miller, 7 goals lead the team while with 7 assists he is tied for the top spot, Neco Bret of the Jamaican National Team heads the charge for the Hounds with his 8 goals. On the defensive side of the ball, NCFC is 5th lowest in goals allowed with 21 between all of the 36 teams in the league. Pitt. has 9 shutouts with a GPG of 1.05.
