Brandon has been struggling recently as they've lost eight of their last ten matches. That's put a noticeable dent in their 5-9 record this season. The victory got Spoto back to even at 7-7.
Brandon came out on top in a nail-biter against Spoto when the teams last played back in February, sneaking past 4-3. The rematch might be a little tougher for Brandon since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
