TULSA – Two wins from two and looking for a third. That’s why FC Tulsa sits atop the League as the only team with six points so far in 2021. What awaits them now is a stretch of four road matches in a month before returning to ONEOK Field in mid-June.
It begins with Tulsa’s toughest test to date, a first-ever meeting with Eastern Conference mainstays Indy Eleven at Carroll Stadium in Indianapolis. The two teams are both unbeaten early on this year, and Indy are a club who brings pedigree and experience to defend its home turf.

Here are 3 Things to Know heading into the match to get you ready for the first clash between FC Tulsa and Indy Eleven.
3 THINGS TO KNOW
1) Know Your Enemy
Martin Rennie and Indy Eleven have been among the Eastern Conference’s best since joining the league in 2018. FC Tulsa’s move to the Eastern Conference and Central Division for 2021 has opened up never before seen matchups in regular season play. One of those will happen this week when Tulsa visits Indy Eleven for the first time. Two former NASL clubs will clash in the USL Championship as FC Tulsa, an NASL member from 1978-1984, will meet Indy Eleven (2014-2017).
2) Nine So Fine
Ferris Bueller can’t change this number. FC Tulsa hasn’t lost in its last nine matches in the USL Championship regular season, the longest unbeaten streak in club history. The club is also carrying a five-match winning streak, another Tulsa first. No USL Championship team in Oklahoma has ever had a 10-match unbeaten streak or 6-match winning streak.
3) Super Darío is On Fire (Again)
With two goals in two matches already in 2021, Dario Suarez has continued scoring for FC Tulsa at a historic pace. The Cuban dynamo is now the fastest in franchise history to hit the 10 goal mark. His 10 goals have come in just 17 appearances for the club, breaking the previous best set by Ian Svantesson in 2017 who hit 10 goals in 20 matches played.
HOW TO WATCH
Every FC Tulsa match this USL Championship season, home and road, will be broadcast locally throughout Tulsa on My41. Fans across the nation can also tune in on ESPN+, but will see the home team’s broadcast of the match rather than FC Tulsa’s on My41. International viewers can watch on YouTube. Kickoff is set for 6:00 p.m. CT in Indianapolis.
