Which Derby name do you prefer?

The upcoming derby of Fort Wayne FC vs Indy Eleven has been given two names so far. The clubs have dubbed it the Victory and Liberty Derby (presented by the Hoosier Lottery) https://www.fortwaynefc.com/news/2026/04/27/introducing-victory-liberty-derby/, which sort of make sense if you read the explanation, but does not really pass the smell test and should not require in depth reasoning. The respective supporter groups (Three Rivers Regiment and Brickyard Battalion) have collectively dubbed it the Hoosier Hostility. https://www.facebook.com/ThreeRiversRegiment/posts/from-the-old-ihl-days-of-the-fort-wayne-komets-vs-the-indianapolis-ice-and-later/1565348955594180/

Broadcast: ESPN+

MATCH PREVIEW

  • Fort Wayne FC (2-2-2): The hosts are in excellent form, having gone unbeaten in their last three league matches (2-0-1). With the defense tightening up and the attack finding its rhythm at the new stadium, three points tonight could see Fort Wayne break into the top half of the table.
  • Westchester SC (2-1-4): The visitors travel to Indiana looking to snap a two-match losing streak after falling to Athletic Club Boise and the Richmond Kickers. Currently sitting just one point behind Fort Wayne in 10th place, Westchester will be desperate to leapfrog their opponents with a road win.
