Washington Spirit
- The Spirit are top of the NWSL 2026 table with 30 points from 15 matches and the visitors are 10th with 19 points from 14 matches.
- The bookmakers may be on to something as the Spirit have won four of their last five NWSL 2026 matches, including back-to-back away wins over North Carolina Courage and Boston Legacy FC.
- The Spirit have been strong at home, with four wins, one draw and one defeat from six NWSL 2026 games and an average of 1.67 goals per game.
Denver Summit FC
- Denver Summit FC's away record in NWSL 2026 reads three wins, two draws and three defeats, so they will be no pushover.
- The visitors are 10th with 19 points from 14 matches.
- Nick Cushing has done a good job at Summit, who can turn possession into something constructive in the main with the help of Yazmeen Ryan, who has two goals in their last five.
Head-to-Head
The 0-0 draw of the previous head-to-head in Denver three months ago suggests a tight game with Summit more than willing to sit and be compact.
Key Players
- Trinity Rodman's speed and skill give the Spirit the edge in terms of an individual with the ability to crack Denver's shape on her own.
- Yazmeen Ryan, who has two goals in their last five.
Betting Insights
- Washington Spirit are the clear favorites with the oddsmakers at 1.66 for Sunday's home game against Denver Summit FC, who are 4.26 outsiders with the draw priced at 3.8.
- Hence, over 2.5 goals at 1.63 looks tempting, but both teams to score at 1.65 is the play here as Denver will get their chances to nick one or two.
Prediction
They should edge this one.
