COMPETING FOR THE CUP

The annual Chancellor's Cup has been no stranger to close matches over years, with 17 of the matches in the all-time series going to overtime periods. Most recently, the tension and competitiveness for the cup has seemed to reach an all-time high, as the last five of the last seven matches have gone to double-overtime. In the last seven pairings, Green Bay owns a record of 3-2-2.

REMAINING UNBEATEN

The Green Bay men's soccer team is looking to extend its unbeaten streak to four games this weekend. The last time the program pieced together a four-game unbeaten streak to open a campaign was in 2013, when the squad opened the slate 3-0-1.

SERIES HISTORY

Green Bay trails in the all-time series with Milwaukee, owning a record of 16-25-5 when taking the field against the Panthers. The Phoenix, however, has managed to get the best of its in-state rival recently, boasting a record of 5-2-2 in the nine most recent contests.
