Loudoun United vs Richmond Kickers: USL League One Cup Rivalry

Loudoun United and Richmond Kickers renew their growing rivalry at Segra Field in a USL League One Cup Group 6 clash, with both sides desperate to kick-start their campaigns.

Loudoun sit 4th in the group with 0 points after a single 1-2 home defeat. Their overall Cup form strip is simply: L. They have at least shown some attacking edge, scoring once and averaging 1.0 goal per game, but conceding 2.0 on average and yet to keep a clean sheet.

Richmond are in deeper trouble. The Kickers are 6th in Group 6 with 0 points from two matches, a goal difference of -5 and a form line of L-L. They have scored just once in the competition (0.5 goals per game) while shipping six (3.0 per game), including a heaviest loss of 0-4 at home.

Head-to-Head

Head-to-head in competitive action recently leans slightly Richmond’s way: they beat Loudoun 1-0 at City Stadium in the 2026 US Open Cup Round of 64, but Loudoun edged a 2024 US Open Cup tie on penalties after a 0-0 draw.

With both teams leaky and under pressure, expect a tight but open encounter. On balance, Loudoun’s home advantage and slightly better attacking output suggest they are marginal favorites to take all three points.
