Union, Harrisburg meet in Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup for third time in five years

In the 103rd edition of the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup, the Philadelphia Union (6-3-5, MLS) look to take on in-state rival City Islanders FC (4-8-1, USL) in a Fourth Round matchup tomorrow night.

Meeting in the Open Cup for the third time in five years, the Union and Islanders FC have established quite a history with one another in the mid-season tournament.

Although, Wednesday night will be the first meeting between the two since the associations parted ways last year – after the Union named Bethlehem Steel FC its new USL affiliate for the 2016 season.
