While it was not a win, the result gave El Paso momentum heading into the final stretch of the week.<\/p>\n<p>Now, the road trip continues as the Locomotive prepare to face Oakland Roots SC on Saturday night at Laney College Football Stadium.<\/p>\n<p>The match will mark El Paso\u2019s fifth away game through its first nine matches of the USL Championship season.<\/p>\n<p>So far, the Locos have thrived away from home. El Paso enters the weekend unbeaten on the road with three wins and one draw.<\/p>\n<p>Oakland, however, also enters the matchup in strong form. The Roots are unbeaten in their last four league matches.<\/p>\n<p>Kickoff is scheduled for 8 p.m. and the match will stream on ESPN+.<\/p>\n<p>Copyright 2026 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
