Both matches are set for kickoff at 7:30 p.m. EST and will be streamed on USLNation.com. After the Wilmington match, Orlando travels South to square off against 2012 USL PRO Postseason Champion Charleston Battery on Friday. The Battery are led by Midfielder Nicholas Paterson, who has five goals on the year in 1,245 minutes played. Paterson also leads the Charleston side in assists with three in 2013.

The Lions enter the month of July ahead of second-place Harrisburg City Islanders, who hold a 10-4-1 record and 31 points. After the two road matches, the Lions return home for a second-straight game against the Battery on Thursday, July 11.
