BACK HOME AGAIN
For the Roughnecks, it is their first home match since April 23. After opening the season with four of its first five matches at ONEOK Field, Tulsa has played four consecutive road games.
Saint Louis will be accustomed to being away from home as the game will mark the seventh away fixture in nine matches. In those seven games, STLFC has picked up 7 points with two wins and one draw.
OCHOA STRIKES AGAIN
After recording back-to-back braces in games at Vancouver and Seattle, Sammy Ochoa picked up another goal in last week’s defeat in Kansas City. The Tulsa captain has five goals on the season with all five coming in the last three matches.
INJURY UPDATE
The Roughnecks are expected to have the services of Iarfhlaith Davoren for Saturday’s match. Davoren has missed the past four matches with a muscle strain. The news is not as good for Cristian Mata and Raymond Lee. Both are unlikely to be available due to injuries.
SERIES HISTORY
TRFC will be looking for its first-ever win against Saint Louis FC. In the only match between the two teams last year, STLFC gained a 2-0 victory at ONEOK Field.

The Roughnecks will wear their traditional orange home kits for Saturday’s match. Saint Louis will be in its all navy kits.
