Phoenix Rising take on 4th place Sacramento Republic tonight in what is sure to be a tough match a loss and the push for the playoffs for Phoenix is over. Sacramento has been playing well recently, and they will be looking to continue their good form against Phoenix. Rising will need to be at their best if they want to get a result from tonight. They will need to be strong in defense and take their chances when they come in attack. It is going to be a close game, but Phoenix will need to rise to the occasion if they want to come away with a win and keep their hopes alive.
Last week's game against Monterey Bay was a tough one. It felt at times we might have a chance to win, but in the end we ended up with a tie. It's frustrating, because a win could have put us in a much better position for the playoffs. But we can't dwell on that now. We have to focus on Sac and do whatever it takes to get three points. Rodrigo López is a veteran player and key to watch for the Sacramento side maybe a little undisciplined as he leads the western conference for most yellows.
Make sure to gather your friends and family and get ready for a make or break match for Rising tonight at 7pm on ESPN+
