Orlando City B (5-6-6, 21 points) will host the Tampa Bay Rowdies (7-5-6, 27 points) tonight in the first I-4 Derby at Orlando City Stadium. After consecutive draws over the past two weeks, the young Lions sit in ninth place in the USL’s Eastern Conference but are tied on points with the eighth place New York Red Bulls II.
Tonight’s game will be the eighth time an Orlando City team has faced the Rowdies. The first six times saw the Lions’ senior team defeat the Rowdies, who gained their first win in the rivalry when they defeated OCB 1-0 to start this season in St.
