PITTSBURGH -- The Pittsburgh Riverhounds will host the Harrisburg City Islanders Sunday night at Highmark Stadium. This will be the first of three fixtures between the Pennsylvania clubs within the first 15 days of June. The game is scheduled for a 6 p.m. kickoff and will be streamed live on YouTube.
Known as the Keystone Derby between the two clubs, the Riverhounds and City Islanders will match up twice at Highmark Stadium and then head to the state Capitol on Saturday, June 14 to complete the three-game series at Skyline Sports Complex. With three fixtures in just two weeks, Sunday night's meeting will be intense for a full 90 minutes as both sides are focused on gaining momentum heading into the middle portion of the season.
The two sides are separated by four points at the bottom of the USL PRO table. Needing a win to gain confidence and some swagger to spark their ascent up the table, the Keystone Derby series will be a critical turning point for one of the Pennsylvania clubs.

The Riverhounds return to Highmark Stadium on June 11 for the second leg of the Keystone Derby against Harrisburg.
