Suggested Video

South Fork is 1-9 against Arcata since October of 2018 but they'll have a chance to close the gap a little bit on Tuesday. The South Fork Cubs will play host again on Tuesday to welcome the Arcata Tigers, where kickoff is scheduled at 6:00 p.m.

Having struggled with three losses in a row, South Fork finally turned things around against Fort Bragg on Friday. Neither they nor the Timberwolves could gain the upper hand so the two teams had to settle for a 3-3 draw. The result (or lack thereof) marked the Cubs' first draw of the season.

Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Arcata). They never let St. Bernard's onto the board and left with a 12-0 victory on Saturday. The result was nothing new for the Tigers, who have now won nine games by three goals or more so far this season.

Their offense was hitting St. Bernard's from everywhere, as six different players booted in a goal. Victor Vega led that balanced group of strikers and accounted for six goals all by himself.

South Fork's draw makes their record 1-7-1 this season. As for Arcata, they pushed their record up to 13-2-1 with the win, which was their fifth straight at home.

South Fork might still be hurting after the 8-0 defeat they got from Arcata in their previous meeting back in September. Will South Fork have more luck at home instead of on the road? Check MaxPreps after the match for a full breakdown of the game, commentary, and other soccer content.
