Following a five-week break for much of the 2014 World Cup, the North American Soccer League will return to action for the fall season on the weekend of July 12-13 with the first of 90 games between July and early November.

Each NASL club will face the other nine teams in the league once at home and once on the road for an 18-game fall season. All NASL teams will play one midweek game under the lights as well.

“We believe there will be a great momentum and interest in soccer across North America when our fall season kicks off following the FIFA World Cup,” NASL Commissioner Bill Peterson said in a statement. “We aim to capitalize on that excitement as our clubs keep the action flowing and NASL fans will have the added bonus of several games to enjoy during the work week.”

The opening fall season weekend features games between the defending NASL champions New York Cosmos hosting the San Antonio Scorpions, the Carolina RailHawks against expansion club Indy Eleven, and a Canadian derby between FC Edmonton and the Ottawa Fury.

Here’s a look at the fall season schedule:
