El Paso Locomotive FC ends its 2020 USL Championship regular season against Real Monarchs on Sunday, October 4 at Zions Bank Stadium. The afternoon kickoff is scheduled for 2:00 p.m. MT and can be watched live on ESPN+.
Los Locos maintained their spot at the top of Group C with a scoreless draw against Colorado Springs Switchbacks FC on last Wednesday. After a quiet first half, Locomotive earned its best chance of the night after Macca King sent a cross into the box to Aaron Gomez who redirected to the back post. Leandro Carrijo headed the effort towards goal where a Switchbacks defender stood in the right place at the right time. Logan Ketterer secured his seventh clean sheet of the season behind just one save as the defensive line in front him limited the Switchbacks’ shots on goal.
Now undefeated in 10 games, Locomotive plays its final game of the 2020 regular season on the road in a fight to keep momentum on its side moving into the USL Championship playoffs. After three rounds against the Monarchs in the abbreviated season, Locomotive so far sweeps the current title winners with a record of 3-0-0. El Paso could make it four for four on Sunday and move into the Western Conference Quarterfinals with confidence to start the track to the trophy.
