Oakland Roots currently sit at the bottom of the Western Conference table with 14 points, but with only six points separating them from fifth-place Phoenix Rising FC, one win could shift the table dramatically. Oakland picked up a win in the Jägermeister Cup last weekend with a 2-1 victory over Monterey Bay FC.
The match will see Detroit City face off against a familiar face, Morey Doner. The defender joined Oakland this past May, having made seven appearances and scored one goal for Le Rouge. So far in Oakland, Doner has played in five matches, accumulating two goals and one assist.
These two sides have faced off five times, going back to the NISA Fall Season in 2020. Detroit City has picked up three victories, with the other two ending in draws. The most significant match between these two sides occurred on October 2, 2020, in the NISA Fall Championship Game. After going down 1-0 in the first half, a goal from Shawn-Claud Lawson in the 65th minute and a Ryan Peterson goal in the 85th minute saw Detroit City claim the Fall Championship.
Detroit City returns to Keyworth next Saturday, July 12, to face Hartford Athletic at 7 pm, opening a three-game home stand. Tickets for all Detroit City matches are available at www.detcityfc.com/tickets.

Broncos predicted to get off to hot start but who gives them their first loss?
Broncos predicted to get off to hot start but who gives them their first loss? originally appeared on The Sporting News The Denver Broncos are a team many see as one of the better teams in the AFC this coming season, and the schedule set up nicely for them in the first month, with the Tennessee Titans and Indianapolis Colts to start the season. Ali Bhanpuri and Adam Rank, two analysts over at recently made game-by-game picks for each team in the league. Broncos Country will love the thoughts of each of them. Bhanpuri has the Broncos finishing 11-6 on the season and becoming the AFC's top wild card. Rank does him one better, putting the Broncos at 12-5, winning the AFC West, and becoming the No. 2 seed in the AFC. Looking at things from a different perspective, John Breech of CBS Sports decided to predict when each team would lose its first game of the season. Breech has the Broncos getting off to a 3-0 start with wins over the Titans, Colts and on the road over the Los Angeles Chargers. But he suggests that the team will come back home in Week 4 and suffer its first loss at the hands of the Cincinnati Bengals. "This might end up being the best game of Week 4. These two teams gave us a shootout last season and it won't be surprising if we get another one with the Bengals pulling off the road upset", wrote Breech. The Broncos and Bengals played in one of the best games of the 2024 season, going shot for shot with major playoff implications on the line. The Bengals won the game 30-24 in overtime, dealing a blow to the Broncos' playoff hopes while significantly helping their own. While the Broncos were the team that took the last playoff spot, many fans felt that the Bengals should have been there instead. The Broncos will still have that loss fresh in their minds for this one and will be seeking a measure of revenge. READ: Broncos backup QB making case for team to repeat recent history The Bengals are built just like they were last year, with a high-powered offense and a lackluster defense. The Broncos improved on both sides of the ball and could have one of the league's best defenses, so they should have the advantage in this game.

Pasquantino and Witt back Lugo's stellar start, powering Royals to 5-2 win over Rangers
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Vinnie Pasquantino homered in the first inning and then scored the go-ahead run in the seventh when Jonathan India was hit by a pitch with the bases loaded, helping the Kansas City Royals to a 5-2 win over the Texas Rangers on Tuesday night. Bobby Witt Jr. added a two-run shot in the eighth for his 100th career homer, and Mike Yastrzemski went deep for the Royals, who have won five straight and improved to 7-1 on their season-high 10-game homestand. Rangers reliever Hoby Milner (1-3) allowed three consecutive hits to start the seventh, including Pasquantino's double. Cole Winn then entered the game and hit India with his first pitch, giving Kansas City its first lead of the game. Angel Zerpa (4-1) got five outs for the Royals before John Schreiber took care of the ninth for his first save. Royals starter Seth Lugo and Rangers counterpart Merrill Kelly had matched each other pitch-for-pitch for most of the night. Lugo surrendered a homer to Corey Seager with two outs in the first, then allowed one more hit before Joc Pederson's homer in the fourth. Those were the only three hits that Lugo allowed, and he walked two while striking out five. Kelly gave up the homer to Pasquantino, which just scraped over the right-field wall, with two outs in the first. He did not allow another hit until Yastrzemski's shot into the right-field bullpen with two outs in the sixth. Those were the only two hits Kelly allowed over six innings. He struck out three without a walk. Key moment Jonah Heim led off the eighth for Texas with a single, but Zerpa got pinch-hitter Cody Freeman to ground into a double play. Key stat Kansas City is 5-0 against the Rangers this season. Up next The Rangers have not announced their starter for Wednesday after disclosing pregame that RHP Jacob deGrom would skip a turn due to shoulder fatigue. LHP Noah Cameron (7-5, 2.47 ERA) is due on the mound for Kansas City. ___ AP MLB:
