Smithfield has enjoyed the comforts of home their last five games, but now they'll head out on the road. They will take on the Chariho Chargers at 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Smithfield's last four contests have been decided by no more than a goal, so don't be surprised if it's a close one.
Smithfield is coming in fresh off a high-stakes matchup with another one of Rhode Island's top teams: East Greenwich, who was ranked 12th in their home state at the time (Smithfield was ranked 16th). Smithfield and East Greenwich finished up their match with a 0-0 draw on Friday. The result kept the Sentinels happy, as they haven't lost a game since October 3rd.
Meanwhile, Chariho unfortunately witnessed the end of their three-game winning streak on Saturday. They played to a draw too, finishing 1-1 against Westerly. The draw was nothing new for the Chargers, who haven't lost a matchup since September 27th.
Smithfield's draw gives them a new season record of 7-4-5. Meanwhile, Chariho's record is now 10-4-2.
Smithfield beat Chariho by a goal when the teams last played back in September of 2023, winning 3-2. The rematch might be a little tougher for Smithfield since the squad won't have the home-pitch advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
