Orlando City SC travels to western New York for the second time this season as the Lions prepare for another encounter with the Rochester Rhinos. Currently sitting comfortably atop the USL PRO standings, Orlando aims to extend its unbeaten run, not only in USL PRO, but also in Rochester as well. In five games played at Sahlen’s Stadium since 2011, City has held a 3-0-2 record.

The Rhinos are currently holding on to the fifth seed in the chase for a playoff berth. Only six points separate the New York based club from ninth place, which would put them out of contention for the post-season.

The Lions saw its club-record eight game win streak snapped during a scoreless draw against Sacramento Republic FC last week. However, City was able to continue its impressive unbeaten run through 18 league games this season.

Currently on a five-game home stand at Sahlen’s Stadium, the Rhinos lost their last match against Wilmington 1-0. Rochester has 27 points, which has the Rhinos sitting in fifth place in the USL PRO.

The Lions are 7-0-2 all time against the Rhinos. That record includes a 3-1 victory at ESPN Wide World of Sports, and a 1-1 draw at Sahlen's stadium this season.
