The Story:

The Pride are currently riding a six-game winning streak, the longest winning streak in Club history. A win over the Reign will tie the longest winning streak in NWSL history.

The Pride will look to continue their hot streak and turnaround their troubles in Seattle. In eight previous matchups on the road against Seattle, Orlando is winless, posting a 0-5-3 record.

Orlando remains one of two unbeaten teams in the NWSL. They’re currently tied at the top of the table with the Kansas City Current with an identical 6-0-3 record.

Quote of the Week:

“We obviously looked back at their [Seattle Reign FC] last performance against Portland. I don’t think the scoreline reflected their performance. I thought they put up a good fight against Portland. The penalty probably changed the outcome of the game. They’re a good team, they have got an experienced coach there that’s won a lot in this league. So, we have to be mindful of Seattle in what they can create. It’s going to be a challenging game for us because our record’s not great away at Seattle. Thats something we want to improve and continue this momentum we’ve shown early on in the season.”

– Head Coach Seb Hines
