ECU is 5-2-4 on the season and 2-1-1 in conference play for fourth place in the league.
Last time out, East Carolina tied the 49ers in Charlotte, 2-2, and shutout first-place North Texas at home, 3-0.

The Pirates' defense has been stout this season, ranking second in the AAC in goals allowed (8) and goals against average (0.73).
