The Clarence Red Devils are taking a road trip to face off against the Sweet Home Panthers at 5:30 p.m. on Thursday. Clarence is coming into the contest hot, having won their last ten games.
The home team had come away the winner the last five times Clarence and Orchard Park had met, but sadly for the fans who attended this one that wasn't the case. The Red Devils came out on top against the Quakers by a score of 5-3 on Tuesday. Given Clarence's advantage in MaxPreps' New York soccer rankings (they are ranked fifth, while Orchard Park are ranked 205th) , the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Sweet Home). They walked away with a 4-2 victory over Holland on Monday. Considering Sweet Home's offense had been struggling lately, the high-scoring outing was a much-needed turnaround.
Clarence's win bumped their record up to 12-1. As for Sweet Home, their victory (their first of the season) made their record 1-7.
Everything went Clarence's way against Sweet Home in their previous matchup back in October of 2024, as Clarence made off with a 4-0 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Red Devils since the squad won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
