On Friday, East Peoria are packing up and heading on the road for the first time this season. They face off against East Moline United at 7:30 PM. It might come down to the wire as the game is expected to be close.
East Peoria fought the good fight in their overtime contest last Friday but wound up with a less-than-desirable result. They took a 7-14 hit to the loss column at the hands of Streator. The contest was a 7-7 toss-up at halftime, but East Peoria was outplayed in the second half.
Meanwhile, East Moline United couldn't capitalize on their home-field advantage in their season opener. They found themselves the relunctant recipients of an unpleasant 0-21 punch to the gut against Davenport West last week.
With both teams hitting sour notes in their previous games, they will no doubt be looking to produce a better score. Neither of those teams managed to put together many points in their previous match, so their meeting could be a low-scoring affair.
