As seen at Richmond College Football, Elon originally appeared on NBC Sports Washington
Elon and Richmond are two soccer teams in desperate need of a conference win. Elon (1-3, 0-1) will venture outside of North Carolina for the first time this season to battle his CAA rival (2-2, 0-1) in a clash of two programs for the conference standings to compete.
Elon has suffered a heavy home defeat against William & Mary, who could barely squeal out of the Rhodes Stadium with a 34:31 win on Saturday. Three of Elon’s next four games are on the road, so a win at Richmond early in October could do wonders for his momentum.
Richmond, on the other hand, has gone cold after winning the first two games of his campaign. Consecutive losses to Villanova and Virginia Tech have brought the Spiders back to .500 total for the season as they look for a home win against Elon over the family weekend.
Can Richmond get on the better side of .500 when Elon comes into town? So you can watch.

ELON at RICHMOND WHAT TO SEE?
This is the third meeting of Elon and Richmond in the calendar year 2021, with the latter taking both victories in March by 14 points each. Elon’s defense will be scrutinized on Saturday to keep the Spiders’ high-profile offensive at bay.
Richmond fans shouldn’t be too excited about their roster jumping to an early lead, however. Although there were only 1-3 points in the season, all three games of Elon against the FCS opponents were decided with three points or less this year. In each of these competitions, the phoenix was double-digit at one point, so keep an eye on Elon’s coaching staff for the right halftime adjustments.
