The Sultana Sultans will take on the Hesperia Scorpions at 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday. The two teams are strolling into their contests after big wins in their previous games.
Sultana's defense heads into the matchup hoping to repeat the dominance they displayed on Friday. They put the hurt on Serrano with a sharp 9-0 victory. Considering Sultana have won six matches by more than two goals this season, Friday's blowout was nothing new.
Their offense was hitting Serrano from everywhere, as six different players booted in a goal. Ivan Vitela led that balanced group of strikers and accounted for three goals all by himself.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Hesperia). They blew past Apple Valley 7-1 on Friday. The result kept Hesperia happy, as they haven't lost a game since December 18, 2025.
Hesperia is on a roll lately: they've won eight of their last nine contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 14-4-1 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their defensive effort, having only given up four goals over those nine matchups. As for Sultana, their victory bumped their record up to 11-2-3.
Sultana beat Hesperia by a goal when the teams last played back in February of 2025, winning 2-1. Will the Sultans repeat their success, or do the Scorpions have a new game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
