PITTSBURGH (Sept. 22, 2021) — The final USL Championship meeting of the season between Pittsburgh Riverhounds SC and Miami FC has been moved forward one day to Saturday, Oct. 16, the league announced this morning.
The match, which was originally scheduled for Oct. 17, will remain a 7:30 p.m. kickoff at Riccardo Silva Stadium in Miami, and it will be televised on 22 The Point and streamed via ESPN+.
The Hounds (14-7-5) and Miami FC (12-6-6) are locked in a tight battle to claim a home playoff game coming out of the Atlantic Division. The teams are scheduled to meet twice more, including the Hounds’ first-ever trip to Miami’s home on the campus of Florida International University on Oct. 2.
The move means that five of the Hounds’ final six games of the regular season will be on Saturday nights, the lone exception being the home match Sunday, Oct. 10 against the Tampa Bay Rowdies.
