How to watch today's Washington Spirit vs Seattle Reign NWSL game: Live stream, TV channel, and start time

Sunday sees Seattle Reign FC make the trip east to Audi Field, where they’ll lock horns with the Washington Spirit in a pivotal Week 19 clash of the NWSL season. With only five points separating the sides in the table, both teams know a victory could prove decisive in the playoff race. 

The Spirit currently sit second in the standings on 32 points from 18 outings, boasting nine wins, five draws, and just four defeats. Their most recent outing ended in a 1-1 stalemate against Chicago Stars FC at Audi Field, a result that kept them in the thick of the title chase but left them hungry for more. 

Seattle, meanwhile, continue life on the road after drawing a strong crowd at Lumen Field last Friday. Interestingly, the Reign have been a tougher nut to crack away from home than in their own backyard this year, dropping only two road games all season. In fact, over their last seven away fixtures, they’ve suffered defeat just once — a run that makes them a dangerous opponent in the nation’s capital.

Washington Spirit team news

Washington has been lifted by the return of Trinity Rodman and the impact of new signing Sofia Cantore. Rodman marked her comeback in August with a goal in her very first outing after injury and hasn't looked back, peppering defenses with 12 shots while linking fluidly with her teammates to stretch backlines.

Cantore’s introduction has been equally eye-catching. Since making her Spirit debut on August 9, she’s already bagged two goals, including one in their latest match, where she also completed her first full 90-minute performance — a statement of intent that she’s ready to play a major role down the stretch.

Seattle Reign FC team news

For Reign FC, the defensive pairing of Madison Curry and Sofia Huerta has been nothing short of indispensable since the NWSL season picked back up in August. Both have been ever-present in the lineup, bringing consistency and bite to the backline.

Curry nearly broke the deadlock just seven minutes into last Friday’s contest with a thunderous effort and was a constant threat going forward, whipping in two crosses — the second-highest tally on the team. Her defensive work was just as sharp, recording two successful tackles and three clearances across 81 minutes of action. On the opposite flank, Huerta proved just as influential, leading the squad with four crosses while also chipping in defensively with a tackle, two interceptions, and four clearances.
