Crown Legacy FC is set to face off against FC Cincinnati 2 in the upcoming MLS NEXT Pro Eastern Conference Quarterfinals. The match will take place at NKU Soccer Stadium on October 20, 2024, with a kickoff time of 7:00 p.m. ET. Fans can catch all the action from this game and the rest of the 2024 MLS NEXT Pro Playoffs on MLS Season Pass available through Apple TV.
The teams have a brief but competitive history. Crown Legacy FC boasts a 2-1-0 record against FC Cincinnati 2, having remained unbeaten in their encounters during the previous year. However, they faced defeat earlier this year with a scoreline of 2-1. Aron John, Crown Legacy's top goal scorer, netted their sole goal in that matchup.
This year's playoffs consist of 15 single-elimination matches spread over four weekends, culminating in the MLS NEXT Pro Cup after three rounds. An interesting feature of these playoffs is the Pick-Your-Opponent style draft, where the top three seeds from each conference select their first-round opponents from among those seeded fifth through eighth.
Further details about the playoffs are available online for those interested in following or attending any of these events.
