Eastlake is 9-1 against Eastwood since March of 2019 and they'll have a chance to extend that dominance on Friday. The Eastlake Falcons will look to defend their home pitch against the Eastwood Troopers at 7:30 p.m. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W'.

Eastlake is likely headed into the match with a focus on the second half, which is when things went downhill against Montwood on Tuesday. Eastlake fell 3-1 to Montwood. Having soared to a lofty four goals in the game before, the Falcons couldn't push the score so high this time.

Meanwhile, while the 2-2 score might suggest a draw, it was Socorro who was credited with the victory on Tuesday. The defeat continues a trend for the Troopers in their matchups with the Bulldogs: they've now lost five in a row.

Gael Zavala and Alejandro Herrera-Corral scored both of Eastwood's goals, bringing their combined season tally to 15 goals.

Eastlake has traveled a rocky road recently having lost four of their last five contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 8-4 record this season. Eastwood's loss dropped their record down to 7-7.

Everything went Eastlake's way against Eastwood when the teams last played back in January, as Eastlake made off with a 4-0 win. Will Eastlake repeat their success, or does Eastwood have a new game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
