Soccer Game Preview: Freeport vs. Burrell

The Freeport Yellowjackets are taking a road trip to take on the Burrell Bucs at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday. Burrell is strutting in with some offensive muscle as they've averaged 4.2 goals per game this season.

Freeport is probably headed into the contest with a chip on their shoulder considering Indiana just ended the team's five-game winning streak on Thursday. The two teams finished up on equal footing with a 1-1 draw. The result kept Freeport happy, as they haven't lost a game since September 22nd.

Meanwhile, Burrell had already won two in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 8.5 goals) and they went ahead and made it three on Thursday. Their defense stepped up to hand the Golden Rams a 5-0 shutout. The result was nothing new for Burrell, who have now won six matches by five goals or more so far this season.

Burrell has now won four of their last five games on the road. That's given a healthy boost to their 9-3-3 record this season. Those road victories came by way of their offensive performance across that stretch, as they scored 27 goals over those five games. Freeport's draw makes their record 10-2-2 this season.
