Kansas City Current vs Chicago Red Stars: Thanks to their 5-2 win over Seattle Reign last time out, Kansas City Current have now returned to top spot in the NWSL table - albeit by the narrowest of margins. The Current are joint-tied on 28 points with Orlando Pride, but could temporarily make that a three point gap should they pick up a vital win against Chicago Red Stars on Friday. As for the Red Stars, they come into this match having lost three on the trot which has seen them tumble down the table after a strong initial start to the 2024 NWSL season.

North Carolina Courage vs Orlando Pride: Meanwhile, Orlando Pride will be determined to get back to winning ways after seeing their streak snapped last time out. A 1-1 draw with San Diego Wave ended their eight game winning streak and marked the first time the Pride had dropped points since being held to a one-all stalemate against Chicago Red Stars on March 30th. With current NWSL leaders Kansas City Current in action on Friday, the onus will be on Orlando Pride to make sure they don't drop any further points during their upcoming showdown with the North Carolina Courage on Saturday.
[MATCH 4889368]
Bay FC vs Utah Royals: Two of the newest faces on the NWSL block will go toe to toe as Bay FC take on the Utah Royals on Sunday. Bay come into this game having finally ended their winless streak with a hard-fought 2-1 win over Chicago Red Stars, but the same can't be said for their upcoming visitors Utah Royals. Unfortunately for the Royals, they just can't seem to catch a break at the moment and will come into this tie having lost their last five NWSL matches.
