**Whitecaps Aim to Extend Unbeaten Streak in Austin Showdown**
**VANCOUVER, BC** – The Vancouver Whitecaps FC, currently leading the Western Conference (8W-1L-3D), are set to face Austin FC (5W-6L-1D) on Saturday, May 17th, at 5:30 p.m. PT, in a crucial Western Conference match. Riding a club-record 11-game unbeaten streak across all competitions, the Whitecaps are looking to maintain their momentum.
The upcoming match at Q2 Stadium in Austin, Texas, marks the second and final regular season meeting between the two teams this year. Vancouver previously dominated Austin with a 5-1 victory at BC Place last month.
Star striker Brian White continues to be a key player for the Whitecaps. His brace in last Sunday’s 2-2 draw with LAFC brought his season total to 13 goals across all competitions. White is currently tied in the league’s golden boot race with eight goals.
A victory or draw against Austin FC would extend the Whitecaps’ unbeaten streak to eight games, equaling their second-longest streak in MLS play.
The Whitecaps are also preparing for the Concacaf Champions Cup Final against Cruz Azul in Mexico City on June 1st.
