Portland Thorns team news

Portland have scored seven goals in their last five matches and boast the league’s most penalty awards this season, highlighting their attacking threat. Top scorer Turner and key midfielders Hina Sugita and Olivia Moultrie provide creative and goal-scoring spark.

The Thorns are ranked 2nd at home in the NWSL but enter this clash off mixed recent form: a 1-0 win over Chicago was followed by a loss and a draw. The squad is largely healthy, and the team is expected to field its strongest available lineup as they look to consolidate a top-table place at home.

Utah Royals team news

Utah Royals are in a deep slump, winless in twelve and with only two goals in their last five games. 

Utah’s defense has struggled, failing to keep a clean sheet in several weeks, but the squad has no major injury concerns for this trip.
