GREEN BAY'S LAST TIME OUT
The Phoenix was scheduled to host Detroit Mercy last week, but that game was canceled due to COVID-19 complications at UDM. GB fell 3-2 in double overtime the match prior at Northern Kentucky, so the team hasn't played since March 12. 

POINTS PRIORITY
This matchup will go a long way towards determining the fourth and final spot in the Horizon League Tournament. Currently, Green Bay sits at 1.4 points per conference match, with Wright State at 1.6. The top four teams selected to the postseason will be granted to the top four teams with the most conference points per match. This format was established due to the many cancellations and uncertainty of the League schedule. The head to head matchup could also serve as an important tiebreaker. 
 
SCOUTING WRIGHT STATE
The Raiders are 1-1-1 in their last three matches, coming off a 2-0 shutout win at IUPUI on March 18. They are also 1-1-1 at home this season and average 1.6 goals per game. They have given up eight goals in six matches. 

UP NEXT
Green Bay will finish the regular season with a pair of home matches against Milwaukee (March 30) and Oakland (April 5), battling for a spot in the postseason. 
 
SEASON FORMAT
Horizon League schools will play a complete round-robin schedule in men's soccer with every league school scheduled to play each other once in the regular season. The league schedule sees each school slated for 10 matches over 11 dates of competition with each school having one bye week. The opening day of the men's soccer season is set for Thursday, Feb. 4. Matches will continue to be held every sixth calendar day until the regular season concludes Monday, April 5. Horizon League championship information, including dates and format, will be announced once finalized.
