*All times listed below are local.
Utah United has the opportunity to become the first team to clinch a spot in the 2025 USL League Two Playoffs presented by VensureHR. A win or draw against Flatirons FC will push them over the line. Three points would go a long way for Flatirons’ hopes of winning the Mountain Division as they close in on locking up their playoff spot.
When these teams met two weeks ago, it was an exciting match with both clubs pushing on offense to create chances. Minneapolis came out on top with a final score of 2-1. Now, with Minneapolis hosting the fixture, it has even more importance in the table as both teams need to keep Sueno FC within reach to keep hope alive of winning the division.
Two of the top teams in the Southwest Division face off for the first time this season on Friday night. Redlands FC has scored multiple goals in all but one game this year. Ventura County Fusion has relied on low scoring games to earn their points this season. This one is a true six-pointer with a rematch scheduled 12 days later.
Lane United FC was the first team to hold Ballard FC scoreless this season and has been a much better team at home. The Bridges shook off their midseason slump with authority via an 11-0 win over Tacoma Stars on Tuesday. A win for Ballard pushes them one step closer to locking up a playoff spot, while three points for Lane United turns up the heat in the Northwest Division.
Vermont Green FC has not allowed a goal against in four straight games. That will be put to the test against an NEFC squad who can explode for offense on their day. A win against the division leaders would go a long way for NEFC as they battle to earn a spot in the crowded Eastern Conference playoff field.
Charlotte’s current five-game win streak started after their home loss to Salem City FC. As the fixture shifts venues, the Independence has maintained a lead in the standings, but another Salem win would create a thrilling dead heat for the final stretch.
West Chester United SC has set the pace in the Mid Atlantic Division this season, but Ocean City sit six points back with two games in hand. A win on home turf for the Nor’easters puts their playoff fate in their own hands, making this a pivotal matchup for both teams.
Peoria City look to have re-found their form after a two-game losing streak. However, Santafe Wanderers will be happy to play spoiler against the 2024 USL League Two finalists in Illinois, who beat them 2-0 earlier in the season.
After a hot start to the season, FC Tucson has cooled off recently, dropping points in three of their last four games, including a 2-1 loss to City SC. The San Diego-area club find themselves as one of the five teams still vying for the Southwest Division title. A loss for either club would be a major blow to their playoff aspirations.
The Rough Riders are on a three-game winning streak as they look to keep up with FC Motown STA. Hudson Valley Hammers know how to grind out a result and, as they look to keep pace with Long Island, this one will have been circled on the calendar.
This matchup between 2025 expansion clubs delivered last time out with a 4-4 final score. It’s been an up and down season for Bigfoot FC, but with five games remaining, playoffs are not off the table. Snohomish United has been Ballard FC’s toughest competition this year for the division crown, and dropping points again could all but settle that race.
