Chicago United (1-1) are backing up to host the Cincinnati Dockers (0-1) after a good win against the St Louis Blues at home. Head Coach Paul Drake is a little concerned about the what the Cincinnati/Louisville combination can bring. "We have made 5 changes to the team from Saturday mainly due to injuries and our depth is being tested. Training has been light after Saturday as we prepare for what we are considering a huge danger game. Louisville visited us last year and played extremely well and we saw what the combo team did in Nashville so are not taking this lightly at all. We are expecting them to bring a full compliment of players to hit us as hard as possible. My guys are keen to prove to the rest of the league that we are back in business and we want to carry on the momentum we gained in that big last quarter against St Louis."

Although they lost in Nashville, the Dockers were played well. According to Cincinnati's Matt Seuling, "Hometown advantage plays a huge part, and I would expect Chicago to play their strongest unit. They have some very experienced players and some large bodies that we will find hard to overcome. But I believe our pace and endeavor will hopefully provide a good foil to Chicago's obvious strengths."
