The Lions picked up two home wins last week with a 4-0 win on the Fourth of July over Toronto FC and a 3-1 win last Saturday against the Chicago Fire.

Orlando has the same squad available Saturday against RSL they had last weekend, so barring any mid-week knocks, expect Oscar Pareja to put out the same lineup he had against Toronto FC.

Rookie Duncan McGuire continues to perform at a high level, with a goal last Saturday and tied for the team lead in goals with Facundo Torres at seven goals for the season.

Orlando leads the series against RSL with two wins, three draws, and one loss in 2019.
