Match Preview: Bethlehem Steel FC and Saint Louis FC to meet for the first time since 2017

CHESTER, Pa. (June 14, 2019) – Bethlehem Steel FC (3-7-4) looks to regain momentum when it hosts Saint Louis FC (5-2-4) at La Salle University’s McCarthy Stadium this Saturday night.

The Steel have been in a rough run of form lately, but Head Coach Brendan Burke said that he thought his side gave decent account of themselves for most of the club’s last match against Nashville SC. After going ahead, Steel gave up four second-half goals to the future MLS side.

Saint Louis FC is a very strong team defensively, not just due to individual performances, but through a unified and connected team defense.
