Naples vs Sarasota Paradise: USL League One Cup Rivalry Clash

Naples and Sarasota Paradise renew their growing rivalry at Paradise Coast Sports Complex in a USL League One Cup Group 7 clash that could shape the group’s middle order. The fixture is scheduled for June 6, 2026, with both sides still searching for consistency in this new competition.

Naples sit 4th in Group 7 with 2 points and a goal difference of -1 after two matches (5 scored, 6 conceded). Their Cup form string is “WL”, and they have been more effective at home, winning their only home game 2-1 while losing 4-1 away. They have yet to keep a clean sheet but have scored in both outings.

Sarasota Paradise are 6th with 0 points and a -4 goal difference, having lost both group games without scoring (0-4 overall). Their form is “LL”, with identical 2-0 defeats home and away, underlining issues in attack and a leaky defence.
