Matchday 6: Cleveland SC Gears Up for Crucial Away Match Against Michigan Rangers FC
Cleveland SC will be traveling to Grand Rapids, Michigan, to face off against the Michigan Rangers FC. The match is scheduled to kick off at 7:00 PM EST on Friday, June 14th, at Davenport University Main Campus.
This clash marks the first encounter of the season between the two clubs. Cleveland SC (3-0-1) is looking to rebound after their first loss of the season to Steel City FC last weekend. Michigan Rangers FC (2-0-2) also suffered a home defeat to Akron City FC in their last match. Currently, Cleveland SC stands second in the Great Lakes Conference, while Michigan is positioned fifth.
Tonight’s match will be the fourth-ever meeting between the two clubs.

Michigan Rangers FC won both regular season matches last year with a score of 2-1.
