Meanwhile, Orange has been on a difficult stretch since their win on August 20. They lost 4-0 to Chagrin Falls on Monday. While losing is never fun, Orange can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Ohio soccer rankings (they are ranked 377th, while Chagrin Falls are ranked 160th).

Independence might still be hurting after the 4-1 loss they got from Orange in their previous matchup back in October of 2020. Will the Blue Devils have more luck at home instead of on the road? Check back here after the action for a full breakdown and analysis of the contest.
