LAST TIME OUT: Saint Louis FC suffered a 5-2 defeat to FC Montreal Wednesday afternoon 
at Stade Saputo. After James Musa scored his first goal of the season to put the visitors 
ahead early, Montreal scored four unanswered goals en route to the victory. The STL FC 
defense has conceded eight goals in its last two matches.

THE OPPONENT: Toronto FC II is coming off a 2-0 loss to the Rochester Rhinos last weekend 
at the Ontario Soccer Centre.  TFC II has struggled offensively as of late, scoring one 
goal in its last six matches combined (1-3-2).  Toronto is in the middle of a eight-game 
homestand.

THE SERIES: Saturday's match will be the second and final meeting of the season between 
Saint Louis FC and Toronto FC II.  Earlier this year, TFC II rallied to defeat Saint Louis 
2-1 at World Wide Technology Soccer Park on May 14.

LEADS SLIP AWAY: In each of its last three games, Saint Louis FC has quickly gone 
ahead 1-0 with a goal in the opening 12 minutes of the match. However, STL FC has failed 
to protect its early leads and is 1-2-0 in those three matches.  In its first meeting 
against Toronto on May 14, Saint Louis scored a goal in the first minute of play only 
to lose 2-1.
