Parkland has gone 8-2 against Allentown Central Catholic recently and they'll look to pad the win column further on Monday. The Trojans will face off against the Vikings at 8:00 p.m. Parkland's defense has only allowed 0.2 goals per game this season, so Allentown Central Catholic's offense will have their work cut out for them.

Parkland is coming in fresh off a high-stakes matchup with another one of Pennsylvania's top teams: Conestoga, who was ranked 11th at the time (Parkland was ranked tenth). The two teams finished up on equal footing with a 1-1 draw on Saturday. The result (or lack thereof) marked Parkland's first draw of the season.

Meanwhile, Allentown Central Catholic kept a clean sheet against Nazareth Area on Monday. They had just enough and edged out the Blue Eagles 1-0. Give some credit to the fans of both teams: the last four times they've met, the home team has come away the winner.

Allentown Central Catholic is on a roll lately: they've won five of their last six matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 8-6 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they scored 18 goals over those six contests. Parkland's draw gives them a new season record of 12-0-1.

Parkland took their victory against Allentown Central Catholic in their previous matchup back in September of 2024 by a conclusive 3-0 score. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Trojans since the squad won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
