Rhode Island vs Westchester SC: USL League One Cup Group 5 Clash

Rhode Island and Westchester SC meet at Centreville Bank Stadium in a finely poised USL League One Cup Group 5 clash, with both sides level on two points and goal difference after two matches of the 2026 campaign.

Rhode Island are still awaiting their first home outing in this group but have been solid on the road: one win and one defeat, scoring and conceding two (average 1.0 scored and 1.0 conceded per game). Their cup form string is “L-W”, underlining an inconsistent but competitive start, backed by one clean sheet and no failures to score so far.

Westchester SC have played both of their group fixtures at home, also splitting one win and one loss with a 5-5 aggregate (2.5 goals for and against per match). They have yet to be tested away from home in this season’s competition and are still chasing a first clean sheet.

The recent head-to-head favors Rhode Island: in the 2025 USL League One Cup group stage they won 4-1 away at The Stadium at Memorial Field, leading 3-0 by half-time.

With no confirmed absences listed and both teams evenly matched in the standings, this shapes up as a tight contest, with Rhode Island’s previous emphatic win giving them a slight psychological edge.
