Hashtag: #LEXvCHA
Series (First Meeting): 1-0-0, CHA (2023)

Chattanooga Red Wolves SC (3-6-2, 10th) is set to travel to Lexington for the first time in club history as it faces expansion side Lexington SC (2-5-4, 12th) for the second time this season. While the Red Wolves are coming off a much-needed shutout victory over Madison a week ago, both Chattanooga and Lexington have picked up just one win over their last five matches. Lexington has been close to putting the pieces together, though, as the first-year side has been just one goal away from winning or drawing each of its last five matches, dating back to a 3-1 defeat at Chattanooga. A win for either side could position Chattanooga or Lexington just a win away from a playoff position.
