LAST TIME OUT
The Gaels had a tough 1-0 loss at home against Santa Clara in their last match that dropped them a game behind the Broncos in the WCC standings
 
The Gaels outshot the Broncos 4-3 in the first half and 2-1 in the second half, but Santa Clara would make that shot count. In the 54^th minute the Gaels couldn't clear the ball after a throw in and Javier Ruiz Duran made a play on it to feed Joshua Dabora a few yards into the penalty area. Dabora flipped the ball up with his left foot perfectly to get it over the Gaels keeper Nicholas Lapinid.

ABOUT LMU
For the second straight season the Lions were picked as preseason favorites by coaches from the West Coast Conference to finish first. Last year's conference champs also had two players named to the All-WCC Preseason Team with returning WCC Offensive Player of the Year, Noel Caliskan, and WCC Goalkeeper of the Year, Jacob Jackson named to the squad.
 
Caliskan, in addition to being named the conference player of the year, was also recognized as First Team All-WCC, WCC All-Academic First Team, USC NCAA Division I Men's All-America Second Team, USC NCAA Division I Men's All-West Region First Team, MAC Hermann Trophy Semifinalist, and Top Drawer Soccer Best XI Second Team during the 2021 spring season.
