FENTON, Mo. – Two teams battling for playoff position in the USL’s Western Conference meet on Saturday night (8:30 p.m. ET | Match Center | ESPN+) when Saint Louis FC hosts Reno 1868 FC at Toyota Stadium – Saint Louis in a crucial six-pointer for both sides.

Here are five things to watch for as the USL Cup Playoffs hopefuls square off for the second time this season.

1. STREAK SPOILT: 1868 FC brought a 16-game unbeaten run into its first matchup with STLFC on July 28, but left Greater Nevada Field that evening with a deflating 2-1 defeat. Midfielder Eric Calvillo picked up two yellow cards in the game’s first 15 minutes, leaving the home side with a lot of work to do. 1868 FC still found itself in the lead at half time through Christopher Wehan’s strike in first-half stoppage time, but the hosts were pegged back 30 minutes after the break by STLFC’s Wal Fall before Sam Fink’s header in second-half stoppage time secured three points for Saint Louis.
