Daniel has gone a perfect 3-0 against Blue Ridge recently and they'll look to pad the win column further on Tuesday. The Lions will challenge the Fighting Tigers at 6:00 p.m. The teams are on pretty different trajectories at the moment (Daniel has six straight victories, Blue Ridge has three straight losses), but none of that matters once you're on the pitch.

Daniel's defense heads into the game hoping to repeat the dominance they displayed on Friday. They blew past Pickens 9-0. The result was nothing new for Daniel, who have now won 12 matchups by three goals or more so far this season.

Their offense was hitting Pickens from everywhere, as seven different players booted in a goal. Gibson Yoder led that balanced group of strikers and accounted for two goals all by herself.

Meanwhile, Blue Ridge didn't have quite enough to beat Travelers Rest on Thursday and fell 2-1. That's two games in a row now that Blue Ridge have lost by just one goal.

Daniel's win was their fifth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 13-3-1. The home victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they scored 32 goals over those five contests. As for Blue Ridge, their defeat dropped their record down to 2-11-1.

Daniel took their win against Blue Ridge in their previous meeting on April 4th by a conclusive 10-0 score. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Lions since the team won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
