Match results

In August 2017, the USL announced that the 2018 season will span 34 games, the longest regular season the league has ever run. [3] The expansion was spurred by the addition of six new clubs for the 2018 season: Atlanta United 2, Fresno FC, Indy Eleven, Las Vegas Lights, Nashville SC, and North Carolina FC.

On January 14, 2018, the league announced home openers for every club. Saint Louis opened the season on the road against Rio Grande Valley FC Toros, opening the 2018 USL season from Edinburg. The club had to wait until March 31 to open up Toyota Stadium, hosting Colorado Springs Switchbacks in their home opener. [4]

The schedule for the remainder of the 2018 season was released on January 19. Saint Louis will play three times against Swope Park Rangers and Tulsa Roughnecks. They will face every other Western Conference team twice. [5]
