A rematch between former lightweight champion Michael Chandler (13-3 MMA, 10-3 BMMA) and David Rickels (16-3 MMA, 10-3 BMMA) is slated for Bellator 145.

Officials today announced the matchup, as well as a trio of preliminary-card bouts.

Bellator 145, which features two title fights, take place Nov. 6 event at Scottrade Center in St. Louis. The main card airs on Spike following prelims on MMAjunkie.

Chandler and late replacement Rickels first fought at Bellator 97 in 2013, where then-champ Chandler earned a 44-second knockout victory. However, the 29-year-old, who had a standout wrestling career at the University of Missouri and hails from the state, lost his next three fights (to Eddie Alvarez and twice to now-champ Will Brooks) before recently rebounding with a submission victory over Derek Campos.

Rickels, meanwhile, is 2-1 since that first fight with victories over J.J. Ambrose and Davi Ramos, as well as a loss to Patricky Freire. Most recently, the 26-year-old’s Bellator 139 co-headliner with John Alessio ended in a no-contest due to Rickels’ accidental illegal knee.

Newly announced preliminary-card bouts include Vincent Eazelle (9-2, 0-0 BMMA) faces Chris Heatherly (9-3 MMA, 0-1 BMMA), Scott Ettling (2-0 MMA, 0-0 BMMA) vs. Garrett Mueller (2-0 MMA, 1-0 BMMA), and Garrett Gross (6-4 MMA, 0-1 BMMA) vs. Luke Nelson (2-1 MMA, 0-0 BMMA).
