Angel City
- Angel City are winless in five games, with four ties and one loss.
- 10th-placed Angel City (26 points from 20 games) have a little bit of an advantage in the NWSL standings over 13th-placed Racing Louisville (23 points from 22), but this game appears to be a toss-up on paper.
Racing Louisville
- Racing Louisville have won three of their last five games but lost their last two.
- Racing have a very solid 5-2-3 record at Lynn Family Stadium this season, which is a decent base to start from.
Head-to-Head
Racing have won four of the last five head-to-head meetings between the teams, winning the last meeting 2-1 .
Key Players
- Beverly Yanez has molded Racing into a compact, pragmatic side that presses hard and transitions quickly thanks to their wing-backs.
- Angel City coach Alexander Straus has his team playing a vertical, wing-heavy game where they counter-press high and bring midfield runners from deep with good timing.
- Racing's Emma Sears is on a run, scoring five of Racing's 13 goals in their last five matches, so she looks like the hot hand in the final third for a game where goals are likely to settle it.
Betting Insights
- Angel City are the razor-thin favorites at 2.01, while Racing are 3.14 and the draw is 3.5, but we have a small preference for the home side.
- Both teams to score, at 1.52, is a smart alternative angle to the game as it fits the open nature of this clash and the recent defensive frailties of the pair.
Prediction
- Racing, despite a decent home record this season, have lost their last two games so it is hard to feel confident about them here.
- Small preference for the home side; consider Both teams to score as an alternative.
