They're currently in a four-way tie for last place in the seven-team Canadian Premier League but FC Edmonton is hoping an offence that was finally sparked on Sunday will see the team catch fire and finish the spring season strong.

FC Edmonton's players and coaches admit it took the team a while to settle down in their first-ever Canadian Premier League game last week but they won and are now looking to build off that performance this weekend when they play their first-ever home opener since joining the CPL.

FC Edmonton added five more players to its Canadian Premier League roster on Thursday including veteran English forward Tomi Ameobi.
