Soccer Game Preview: Nettleton vs. Searcy

Nettleton is 1-9 against Searcy since March of 2019 but they'll have a chance to close the gap a little bit on Tuesday. Nettleton will look to defend their home pitch against Searcy at 7:00 p.m.

Last Thursday, Nettleton and Greene County Tech finished up on equal footing with a 2-2 draw. Nettleton had to tread lightly for part of the contest as Luis Bernal and Joshua Wright were both handed yellow cards, which could explain the final result.

Juan Munoz was the only thing that stood between Nettleton and a shutout considering he scored both of Nettleton's goals, bringing his season total up to three goals.

Meanwhile, after failing to score in their last match, Searcy made sure to put some goals up on the board against West Memphis last Thursday. They blew past the Blue Devils 8-1. Searcy might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won four games by three goals or more this season.

Searcy has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won three of their last four contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 5-1-2 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they scored 23 goals over those four matchups. Nettleton's draw gives them a new season record of 3-3-2.

Nettleton might still be hurting after the 6-0 defeat they got from Searcy in their previous meeting back in April of 2024. Will Nettleton 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.
