Saint Louis steps outside of Atlantic 10 play to welcome the Drake Bulldogs to Hermann Stadium for a non-conference men's soccer match. Kickoff is set for 7 p.m.

The Billikens (3-3-2) are unbeaten in their last two matches and are coming off a 1-0 home victory over Duquesne. Luke Adams scored the game-winner in the 13th minute, and goalkeeper Lucas McPartlin made two saves for the shutout.

Drake (4-3-2) is coming off a 1-0 loss at Evansville in the Missouri Valley Conference opener. The Bulldogs have been staunch defensively, yielding just five goals on the season. Evan Carlson paces the Bulldog offense with three goals. Barrett Kitts has four assists.

Here are five additional facts in advance of the match:

1 // Luke Adams was named the Atlantic 10 Defensive Player of the Week on Monday. He anchored a Billiken back line that yielded just three Duquesne shots in a 1-0 SLU victory over the Dukes on Sept. 26 (read more).

2 // Seven different players have scored for the Bills so far this season, while 11 players have recorded at least one point. Tanner Anderson, Theo Franca and Andrew Heckenlaible have all tallied twice, while Luke Adams, Jackson Delkus, Guilherme Gomes and Alander Soares have each scored once. Heckenlaible leads the Billikens with six points (2G, 2A).

3 // Twenty different players have recorded at least one start for the Billikens this season. Luke Adams, JC Cortez and Nick Schramm are the only Billikens who have started all eight games. 

4 // SLU head coach Kevin Kalish, a three-time A-10 Coach of the Year, is in his ninth season at SLU and 15th overall as a collegiate head coach. Kalish is 85-37-37 during his time at SLU and 134-82-51 in his career.

5 // The Billikens and Bulldogs are meeting for the sixth time. SLU holds a 4-1 advantage in the series. The teams last played in 2012, a 1-0 SLU victory behind a second-half goal by Adnan Gabeljic. SLU and Drake met in the first round of the NCAA Tournament at Hermann Stadium in 2008. Kyle Hayes scored the golden goal with 4.1 seconds remaining in overtime to propel SLU to the 1-0 win.
