MATCH PREVIEW Set to fall short of the USL Cup Playoffs for the first time in the club’s four-year history, the Swope Park Rangers (6-19-8, 26 points) will conclude their 2019 USL Championship campaign on Wednesday night with a trip to Eastern Conference contenders Indy Eleven (18-9-6, 60 points) at the cavernous Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis. Led by second-year head coach and former Sporting Kansas City midfielder Paulo Nagamura, the Rangers are looking to bounce back from a humbling 8-3 loss at Louisville City FC on Saturday and end the season on a high note. Portuguese playmaker Ze Pedro, on-loan Sporting KC midfielder and U.S. youth international Gianluca Busio and forward Ethan Vanacore-Decker all found the back of the net in the first half to give SPR a 3-0 lead, but Louisville responded emphatically with eight unanswered goals to claim victory.

SPR INJURY REPORT
Indy Eleven have punched their playoff ticket under head coach Martin Rennie and can solidify third place in the East with a win or a draw on Wednesday. Indy snapped a four-game losing skid by thrashing Memphis 901 FC by a 3-0 scoreline on Oct. 5 before battling Tampa Bay Rowdies to a 1-1 road draw on Saturday evening. Indy’s top two scorers, Tyler Pasher (11 goals) and Dane Kelly (eight goals), both plied their trade for SPR in 2016, with Pasher also spending 2017 in Kansas City.
OUT: M Camilo Benitez (knee)
OUT: GK Brooks Thompson (back) QUESTIONABLE: Wilson Harris (foot contusion)
