Coaches quotes:

“We still have a lot to play for. We want to finish as high as we can in the standings and a win on Sunday will help us do that. Indy has grown and their last three results are very good. We will need to be prepared both mentally and physically for a tough challenge.” – Fury FC coach Marc Dos Santos

“I feel like we're playing our best soccer and continuing to come together as a team, especially on the defensive side of the ball over the last five to six games. We've got another opportunity to climb up the standings against an Ottawa team that's been a bit of a thorn in our side, so our group certainly feels like it has plenty to play for on the weekend.” – Indy Eleven coach Juergen Sommer
