Sporting JAX (12-4-5) Week 25: vs. BKN |
 Last Week: 1 |
Sporting JAX couldn’t find a winner against Spokane Zephyr FC on Saturday night, narrowing their lead to four points against Lexington SC. Getting back on track at home to Brooklyn this week is going to be important to maintain a push for the Players’ Shield. |

Lexington SC (9-2-10) Week 25: @ DC |
 1Last Week: 3 |
Lexington had to fight hard defensively to hold off Brooklyn FC on Saturday afternoon but got the job done for a second consecutive win. Earning all three points against DC Power on Wednesday night would continued to apply pressure to Jacksonville. |
| 3 |  |
Carolina Ascent FC (9-7-6) Week 25: @ TB |
 1Last Week: 2 |
Ascent Head Coach Philip Poole was right, his side should have made it five consecutive wins on Saturday night. But if you let teams hang around, even ones in the sort of form Fort Lauderdale United is in, you might end up paying the price. |
| 4 |  |
Spokane Zephyr FC (6-8-8) Week 25: @ DAL |
Last Week: Not Ranked |
Getting a point on the road was big for Spokane’s postseason chances, now they’ve got a huge week ahead. Victory against Dallas Trinity on Tuesday night would pull Zephyr level on points in fourth place before starting five consecutive home games to end the regular season. |
