Austin are at home against DC United as the MLS regular season gets to its business end.
The Oaks are currently set back by six points from qualifying for the wild card round in the Western Conference, while the Black-and-Red are hot on the heels of ninth-placed Montreal in the Eastern Conference.
Josh Wolff's side has not won a game since mid-July, coming into the tie on the back of a 1-0 loss to Colorado Rapids. Wayne Rooney's men, on the other hand, will also be looking for their first victory in six matches having last registered a point in the 2-2 draw at Vancouver Whitecaps.
