Soccer Preview: Palmetto vs. Southwest
The Palmetto Panthers will head out to square off against the Southwest Eagles at 3:30 p.m. on Tuesday. Palmetto's last four contests have been decided by no more than a goal, so don't be surprised if it's a close one.
Last Friday, Palmetto and MAST Academy finished up their matchup with a 2-2 draw.
Meanwhile, Southwest was not able to break out of their rough patch last Thursday as the team picked up their sixth straight defeat. They fell just short of Braddock by a score of 1-0. While losing is never fun, the Eagles can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Florida soccer rankings (they are ranked 376th, while the Bulldogs are ranked 77th).
Southwest's loss dropped their record down to 0-6. Palmetto's draw makes their record 2-2-2 this season.
Palmetto took their victory against Southwest in their previous meeting back in December of 2022 by a conclusive 4-0. The rematch might be a little tougher for Palmetto since the team won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
