Miami FC hit a bump in the road in the Fall Season at a crucial stretch in the year as the first-year side came up just short of reaching The Championship, the NASL's four-team postseason tournament. Hosting one last home game of 2016, Miami (8W-6D-7L, 30 points Fall; 9-10-12, 37 Combined) will look to end a five-game winless skid to close out the campaign. Miami recently lost, 4-0, to the New York Cosmos, but the club has had success against its next opponent, FC Edmonton, so far this year. Miami defeated the Eddies, 1-0, in the Spring Season and picked up a 2-0 win at Clarke Stadium just over a month ago.

FC Edmonton (10-6-5, 36 Fall; 15-8-8, 53 Combined) is hoping to iron out its form before heading to Indianapolis for a semifinal game on Nov. 5. The Eddies returned to the win column last Sunday with a 1-0 result over Jacksonville Armada FC on a late penalty by Daryl Fordyce. Coach Colin Miller is expected to give some regulars a rest before the club embarks on its first contest in the postseason since 2011.
