Tonight
FC Tampa Bay at FC Edmonton
When/where: 6; Foote Field, Edmonton
Records: Tampa Bay 4-5-6 (18 points); Edmonton 7-4-4 (25 points)
Watch: fctampabay.com
Series: This is the third of four meetings. Tampa Bay gave up a stoppage-time goal in a 1-1 draw May 11, and Edmonton rolled 4-0 on May 31.
Last time out: Tampa Bay upended Bolton of the English Premier League 1-0 in an international friendly Thursday at Al Lang Field in St. Petersburg. F Matt Clare scored in the 65th minute, and goalkeepers Jeff Attinella and Evan Newton combined for the shutout. In league play, Tampa Bay scored early at Puerto Rico on July 9, but the Islanders rallied for a 1-1 draw. … Edmonton earned a 1-1 draw at home against league-leading Carolina on Wednesday.
Skinny: Tampa Bay is undefeated over its past four games (two wins, two ties), and Edmonton is on a five-match unbeaten streak (two wins, three ties). … Edmonton is second in the league but trails Carolina by 13 points. Tampa Bay is 20 points behind the RailHawks in sixth place. … Tampa Bay midfielders Tsuyoshi Yoshitake (hamstring) and Takuya Yamada (groin) are questionable, and M Chad Burt (foot) is doubtful.
