GAME 6 - QUICK HITTERS• Riverhounds SC (2-1-2 overall, 1-0-0 home) will battle Saint

Louis FC (4-1-1 overall, 2-0-0 away) in the second match of a three-game homestand. The Hounds won their home opener, 3-1, against Hartford Athletic on April 13.

• The last time these clubs met at Highmark Stadium (April 12, 2017), Saint Louis FC won 2-1. Forward Christian Volesky, now a Hound, scored a goal for Saint Louis in this match.

• Historically, Saint Louis FC and the Hounds have been evenly matched across the board. Pittsburgh holds an all-time record of 1-1-2 against the foe, including a 0 goal differential.

• Leading the Black and Gold with 13 shots and five shots on target, Steevan Dos Santos notched his first goal of the season last time out against Hartford Athletic.

• Dos Santos’ work rate has been unmatched this year, as the forward leads the club with 144 duels, which is more than double any other Hound. Defender Jordan Dover has the second-most duels (67) on the club.

• In four straight matches, the Black and Gold have been awarded a penalty kick. The club has converted three of these four chances from the penalty spot. Forward Neco Brett has scored on a penalty kick in two straight games.

• In regular season matches, Pittsburgh holds a nine-game unbeaten streak at Highmark Stadium. The last time the Black and Gold dropped a regular season tilt at the venue was a 1-0 defeat to the Charleston Battery on July 21, 2018. Also of note, the squad lost its 2018 playoff match against Bethlehem Steel FC, 2-2 (8-7 penalties), at Highmark Stadium.

• Pittsburgh is one of three teams in the USL Championship Eastern Conference to currently hold a four-game unbeaten streak (Tampa Bay Rowdies and New York Red Bulls II).
