Alta vs Orange County SC: USL League One Cup Clash

Alta and Orange County SC meet again at Lancaster Municipal Stadium with both sides desperate to ignite their USL League One Cup campaigns.

The Group 2 clash in the USL League One Cup group stage finds Alta bottom in 6th place and Orange County SC just above them in 5th, both on 0 points after two straight defeats. Alta’s form strip reads L-L, with 1 goal scored and 4 conceded, all away from home so far. Orange County SC also come in on L-L, having scored 2 and conceded 4 across one home and one away loss.

Recent head-to-head history at this venue adds intrigue: in April 2025, Alta knocked Orange County SC out of the US Open Cup 3rd Round on penalties after a 2-2 draw (Alta winning the shootout 4-2). That result shows Alta can rise to the occasion in knockout-style fixtures at Lancaster.

Statistically, Orange County SC carry a slightly better attacking output (1.0 goals per game vs Alta’s 0.5), while both leak an average of 2.0 goals per match and have yet to keep a clean sheet.

Verdict: Expect a tight, open contest, with a slight edge towards Orange County SC avoiding defeat, but a draw or narrow one-goal margin either way looks most likely.
