Colorado Springs vs El Paso Locomotive: USL League One Cup Showdown

Colorado Springs and El Paso Locomotive meet at Weidner Field in a pivotal USL League One Cup Group 2 clash, with both sides perfect after two matches. Colorado Springs top the group on goal difference with 6 points and a +5 differential, having scored 5 and conceded none. El Paso also have 6 points but a +3 goal difference, with 4 goals scored and 1 conceded.

Head-to-Head

Head-to-head meetings have been remarkably tight. The last five competitive encounters produced four draws and one Colorado Springs win. The most recent was a 2-2 in El Paso in March 2026, following 1-0 and 1-1 scorelines that also underscored how little has separated these teams.

Statistics

Statistically, Colorado Springs boast the stronger defence, with two clean sheets and 0.0 goals conceded per game, while El Paso’s attack has been consistently productive at 2.0 goals per match. With no confirmed absences reported, both coaches should have full squads available.

Verdict

Expect another close contest, with Colorado Springs’ defensive solidity and home record giving them a slight edge, but a draw would not surprise.
