2024 USL Championship Matchday 19
The action kicks off on Wednesday with a top-six showdown as Detroit City FC, currently holding onto fifth place, welcomes Birmingham Legion to their home turf.
Can Detroit City solidify their position, or will Birmingham Legion pull off an upset and snatch crucial points on the road?
This week’s USL Championship slate kicks off with a bang up match on Wednesday when fifth on the standings Detroit City FC hosts sixth seed Birmingham Legion.
Then on Friday Charleston takes on North Carolina in a big rivalry game.
Saturday’s top matchups include Pittsburgh traveling to Vegas to take on the Lights and Loudon hosting Tampa Bay.
Detroit City FC vs Birmingham Legion FC
Wednesday, June 26
Both teams are playing well enough to win this. Detroit City has won 2 straight while Birmingham has won 2-of-3.
The difference is in the head-to-head.
Detroit has won the last 3 head-to-head matchups, including beating Birmingham 3-2 on the road last August 27.
Give the home side the nod.
USL Pick: Detroit City FC
Charleston Battery vs North Carolina FC
Friday, June 28
Road squad North Carolina is in better form after having won 2-of-4 with a single loss and a draw.
Charleston has drawn 3 times with 2 losses in their last 5.
These two drew in the last head-to-head. The match happened in March this year.
Although North Carolina, or the home team can get it done in regulation.
A second straight draw is the pick.
USL Pick: Draw
Loudon United FC vs Tampa Bay Rowdies
Saturday, June 29
Loudon is playing well enough to put a scare into the Rowdies.
The home squad in this has won 2 with a couple of draws in their last 4.
Tampa, though, is on fire. The Rowdies show a single loss in their last 5.
Wins over Hartford, Louisville, Sacramento, and Vegas suggests the Rowdies take this in regulation no problem.
USL Pick: Tampa Bay Rowdies
Colorado Springs Switchbacks vs Monterey Bay
Saturday, June 29
This should be one of the more competitive USL matches on Saturday.
Colorado Springs is 6-3-6. Monterey is 6-4-7.
The Switchbacks have 21 points. Monterey Bay shows 22.
What will happen when they face off on Saturday? A draw.
USL Pick: Draw
Orange County SC vs Oakland Roots
Saturday, June 29
Orange County has home pitch edge, but Oakland is the pick.
Before their last, a 2-1 road loss to Monterrey, the Roots had dominated their opponents.
Oakland had posted 3 straight wins versus Tampa Bay, Sacramento, and El Paso.
The Roots get back on the winning track.
USL Pick: Oakland Roots
Las Vegas Lights vs Pittsburgh Riverhounds
Saturday, June 29
Pittsburgh blasted Vegas 4-1 in the last head-to-head.
However, the game happened back in May 2023.
Recent form suggests neither squad has the edge. The Riverhounds show 2 draws and 3 losses in their last 5.
The Lights have 4 draws and a win. This one is headed for a draw.
USL Pick: Draw

Top USL Championship Games to Watch and Bet On This Week
2021 USL Championship Games
When: Wednesday, June 2 – Sunday, June 6
Wednesday, June 2nd Matches
Oklahoma City Energy FC / Indy Eleven
Oklahoma City Energy has 3 draws and 2 losses in their last 5. Home squad Indy Eleven has won 3-of-4, including winning their last couple, 2-0 against Sporting KC II on May 22, and 2-1 versus Louisville City on May 29. Indy looks tough.
Soccer Pick: Indy Eleven
Tampa Bay Rowdies / New York Red Bulls II
This year, no team has touched the Tampa Bay Rowdies. The likely underlay moneyline favorite is 4-0 in 4 matches. TB hasn’t won their last couple of matches by more than a goal, though. Still, we’re willing to lay the handicap because the Red Bulls lost by 3 goals to the Pittsburgh Riverhounds in their last match.
Soccer Pick: Tampa Bay handicap
Saturday, June 5th Matches
San Antonio FC / Colorado Springs Switchback FC
On May 14, Colorado Springs looked great when beating Sporting Kansas City II 4-0. But the victory is the Switchback’s lone this year. Colorado Springs is 1-3 in their 4 matches in 2021. San Antonio is good enough to hand the Switchback another loss.
Soccer Pick: San Antonio FC
Tacoma Defiance / Las Vegas Lights FC
Home squad Las Vegas should be in some trouble. Tacoma Defiance has won 2 straight. The Lights are 0-5 in their last 5. Save for one of the losses, LVL’s opponents have beaten them by at least 2 goals. Tacoma on the handicap is the play.
Soccer Pick: Tacoma Defiance handicap
San Diego Loyal SC / Phoenix Rising FC
On May 15, the Rising hung with the Tampa Bay Rowdies in a 2-1 loss. Phoenix has beaten every other opponent this year. San Diego is a decent squad, but the Rising should win this on the handicap.
Soccer Pick: Phoenix Rising handicap
Orange County SC / Sacramento Republic FC
On May 22, Orange County beat Sacramento 1-0. The pitch is reversed in this with the Republic hosting the OC. Because of that, Sacramento should offer favorite’s odds, making Orange County a decent play on the moneyline.
Soccer Pick: Orange County SC
Sunday, June 6th Matches
FC Tulsa / Birmingham Legion FC
FC Tulsa had won 3 straight until May 19 when Atlanta United 2 dominated them 5-0. Birmingham is on a 2-match winning streak. Because Tulsa lost so badly versus the ATL, they figure to offer overlay odds while the Legion offers underlay odds. Go with the overlay squad.
Soccer Pick: FC Tulsa
Austin Bold FC / Pittsburgh Riverhounds
Pittsburgh beat the New York Red Bulls II 3-0 on May 28. On May 26, Austin Bold beat Real Salt Lake Monarchs 2-0. The Riverhounds look solid but Austin can pull off the road win.
Soccer Pick: Austin Bold
Louisville City FC / Atlanta United 2
On April 24, Louisville City beat Atlanta U 2 by a 2-0 score. Atlanta U looks for revenge in the rematch. These two show similar form. We’re expecting Atlanta to be the chalk, which is why we’re taking a shot on LCFC.
Soccer Pick: Louisville City FC
Rio Grande Valley Toros / Miami FC
Rio Grande started May with 3 straight wins. Since then, they’ve lost one and drawn in one, 1-0 against El Paso and 1-1 versus San Antonio. Miami is a decent soccer club. But they aren’t as good as the Toros. If the moneyline odds on Rio make them an underdog, go for it. Otherwise, consider backing RGVT on the handicap.
Soccer Pick: Rio Grande Valley Toros
