The promotion confirmed the pairings to the Saskatoon Star Phoenix on Wednesday. The UFC Fight Night event takes place at Sakel Centre in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada on June 20. The card does not yet have a headliner.

A native of Ontario, Robertson has been victorious in four of her first six Octagon appearances. The 24-year-old American Top Team representative last appeared at UFC on ESPN 6, where she suffered a first-round TKO defeat to Maycee Barber.

Santos earned a UFC contract on the Brazilian version of Dana White’s Contender Series. She suffered her first setback in 16 professional outings in her Octagon debut at UFC Fight Night 144, where she dropped a split verdict to Mara Romero Borella in February 2019.

Barriault is looking for his first promotional triumph after falling to Andrew Sanchez, Krzysztof Jotko and Jung Young Park in his first three UFC appearances. The 30-year-old Quebec native went 11-1 on the regional circuit before joining the Las Vegas-based organization.

Poland’s Piechota also enters the matchup on a three-bout skid in the Octagon after winning his first two UFC bouts. Most recently, Piechota suffered a first-round knockout loss to Punahele Soriano at UFC 245.
