PREVIEW
Following the recent loss to New Mexico United, Phoenix Rising has little time to dwell on the result with just three matches remaining in the regular season. Rising returns to 38th & Washington to face the Las Vegas Lights, holding an 11-5-6 all-time record against its Western Conference opponent. The last meeting ended in a 1-1 draw in August, with Danny Flores finding the back of the net to help Rising earn a point after a comeback effort.
“Right now, we’re just trying to build on what we did well against New Mexico, while working to lessen the mistakes we made,” Arase said. Eventually, we’ll turn our attention to Vegas, look at where they are, identify their weaknesses and see where we can catch them to get three points.”
