Chattanooga Football Club hosts a rare midweek game as it welcomes NPSL finalists Apotheos FC from Kennesaw, Georgia on Thursday night. Gates open at 6:00 p.m. and kickoff is set for 7:30 p.m. (NEW TIME). The match is presented by Food City.
The home team is expected to use this non-league match as a chance to showcase some of its young talent and players the fans have never had the opportunity to see play. While some of the familiar starters will be available, CFC head coach Rod Underwood is expected to rest a number of starters who have accumulated significant minutes this season.
