Detroit City FC is preparing for a midweek match against Cleveland Force SC at Krenzler Field on Wednesday evening. The squad aims to extend its lead at the top of the Great Lakes Division before hosting Midwest United FC this weekend. Kickoff is scheduled for 7 PM ET.

Detroit City FC recently secured a decisive 4-1 victory over AFC Ann Arbor at Keyworth Stadium last Saturday. The team controlled the match, with AFC Ann Arbor adopting a defensive stance throughout.

Goals from Sophia Romine, Kate Childers, and Faith Webber gave Detroit City FC a commanding 3-1 lead by halftime. Hannah Crum added to the score in the second half with a direct free kick. Romine's goal was her third of the season, marking her as a consistent scorer at Keyworth Stadium this year.

The win was Detroit City FC’s fifth of the season, improving their record to 5-1-0 and allowing only two goals thus far. This performance underscores the strength of their defense at the halfway point of the USL W League regular season.

Cleveland Force SC enters tonight's match aiming to gain momentum in the second half of the season. They currently sit in sixth place in the Great Lakes Division with a record of 1-0-5, their sole victory coming against Michiana Lions, who are at the bottom of the division.

Last season, Detroit City FC won all three encounters with Cleveland Force SC. David Dwaihy’s first win as a W League head coach came against Cleveland Force on their home turf, thanks to Avery Peters' decisive strike.
