Welcome to your match preview and live thread for a Sunday night inaugural match-up between Orlando City (6-4-2, 20 points) and Austin FC (7-3-2, 23 points) at Q2 Stadium (8 p.m., FOX 35 Plus). This is the only scheduled meeting between the teams this season.
Here’s what you need to know ahead of the match.
History
There isn’t any history. This will be the first meeting between the teams. The Lions haven’t fared well overall in their history when playing in the state of Texas. Orlando City won its first MLS match the state — and got its first ever victory in Major League Soccer — back on March 13, 2015 with a 1-0 win at Houston, but the team is just 1-4-1 in the Lone Star State.
