NISA Pro Week 11 Preview
16.10.2021
It's finally that time again! NISA Pro is back, and ISB is back doing our preview and predictions of the 5 games up today and tomorrow. This week there's some pretty entertaining games, as well as some that could shake up the table. Additionally, to see more previews and predictions from ISB go to our NISA Nation Week 5 Preview going up at the same time this post is!
Maryland Bobcats vs Chicago House
The first match of the 5 this week, Chicago meet the Bobcats at their house. But, Maryland have started to go on a downhill spiral this season, with a 4-0 loss last week to New Amsterdam, as well as winless in the previous three games before that. Chicago have been starting to dig themselves out of their hole, and they've gone unbeaten in the last 3 games. A win would take them another spot up the table, while Bobcats could do the same. I'm going to choose Chicago to win this game.
San Diego 1904 vs Detroit City FC
Now it's time for bottom place vs top place. San Diego vs Detroit, and this is going to be honestly quite an easy one to predict. Detroit have taken off with the title, and San Diego find themselves completely at the bottom, in 10th place. San Diego haven't won in a couple of months, and it's unlikely that if they find another win it'd be against Detroit. With a win, San Diego could go higher, but it's likely that after the result of this game Le Rouge will widen the gap to the title. I'm picking Detroit to win this one.
LA Force vs New Amsterdam
This game is going to be very entertaining, for many reasons. For one, New Amsterdam find themselves in 6th place, but it's not a far gap between them and 2nd place. A win could take them way up there, and would be crucial to their season. A win could take LA Force in second place also, potentially both of these sides could be above Cal United after this game. Both of these sides have momentum this season, and when New Amsterdam is good, they're a force to be reckoned with in this league, and the same goes for LA Force. I'm predicting a draw in this game.
Cal United Strikers vs Stumptown
Another very important game for the season, as both of these sides, Cal United and Stumptown, are just two points off of each other. Stumptown are in 4th place, and Cal United are in 2nd (Before the games are played), and anywhere from 6th to 2nd could become really shook up from these two games. Cal United have just 1 loss in their last 5, but Stumptown are winless in their last 5. My prediction in this game is that Stumptown will grab an away win from this game.
Michigan Stars vs Chattanooga FC
Now it's Michigan Stars against Chattanooga FC, and these two sides are just separated by two places in the table. Both of these sides have had 2 losses in their previous 5 games, and despite how close they are to each other, I think Chattanooga have a higher quality squad than Michigan. My prediction is that Chattanooga will win today against Stars. Source: https://independentsoccerb.wixsite.com/independentsoccerblo/post/nisa-pro-week-11-preview
