Head-to-Head
Wave have won three of the last five meetings between these teams, with Racing winning just once and the two sides having shared one draw.
Key Players
- Trinity Byars has been on a scoring spree for Wave, scoring four times in her last five appearances for the team in what is now a 10-goal burst.
- Racing's Taylor Flint has scored two of their five goals in the team's last five matches and has been a threat in midfield and from set pieces.
Betting Insights
- However, with Racing being a more direct side we think they should have a puncher's chance of getting a goal in defeat, so the 1.68 favorite odds on the away win look a bit short.
- But the Over 2.5 goals and Both Teams to Score - Yes markets look a little more fair at 1.46 and 1.44, respectively, so we're backing an away win with goals at both ends on Friday.
Prediction
San Diego Wave have been in a better place than Racing over the past few weeks and their superior recent form suggests they are the most likely side to earn the points on Friday.
