After a pair of tough losses in Canada, Orlando City B (5-6-5, 20 points) has grabbed four points out of its last two games and will look to add to that tonight when the young Lions face the Pittsburgh Riverhounds (5-7-4, 19 points). The young Lions currently sit in 10th position in the USL’s Eastern Conference, tied with three teams. They will look to jump back over the red line into a playoff position while separating from the Riverhounds, who sit one spot behind in the standings.
Gaining three points was made more difficult this week when the USL announced Wednesday that star midfielder Pierre Da Silva will be suspended for three games for violent conduct in the closing minutes of the team’s 1-1 draw with FC Cincinnati last weekend.
