Soccer Game Preview: Habersham Central vs. Cherokee Bluff

The Habersham Central Raiders will look to take advantage of their home pitch for the first time this season as they take on the Cherokee Bluff Bears at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday.

Habersham Central is coming home looking for redemption after taking a loss in their road opener. They fell just short of Gainesville by a score of 4-3 on Tuesday.

Meanwhile, Cherokee Bluff unfortunately couldn't capitalize on their home-pitch advantage in their season opener. They took a 3-1 hit to the loss column at the hands of Buford on Tuesday. The loss continues a trend for the Bears in their matchups with Wolves: they've now lost three in a row.
