With last weekend’s upset of the Portland Thorns, Red Stars qualified for their second successive NWSL championship. They will take on the Spirit, who are unbeaten in eight games, and who are also coming off of a huge upset last week. The game will be played at Lynn Family Stadium, the shared home of Racing Louisville and USL’s Louisville City FC. The match will be at 11 in the morning (Central Time), as it will be aired on CBS.
Julie Ertz and Alyssa Naeher are still unavailable for the Red Stars due to their respective long-term injuries, and Casey Krueger is out due to illness.
