Leon and Arnold are an even 3-3 against one another since November of 2015, but likely not for long. The Lions will square off against the Marlins at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. Leon's offense has struggled lately (the team hasn't scored more than a single goal for five straight games), a trend the team is no doubt ready to end.

Leon is on a roll after a high-stakes playoff matchup on Tuesday. They came out on top in a nail-biter against Mosley, sneaking past 1-0. The win continues a trend for Leon in their matchups with Mosley: they've now won five in a row.

Meanwhile, Arnold hasn't lost a match since December 13, 2025, a trend which continued in their latest game on Friday. Neither they nor Fort Walton Beach could gain the upper hand so the two teams had to settle for a 0-0 draw.

Leon's victory bumped their record up to 5-10-1. With that draw, Arnold's record moves to 12-1-2.

Leon couldn't quite get it done against Arnold in their previous meeting back in January of 2025 as they fell 2-0. Can the Lions avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
