Match preview: Sky Blue FC faces Orlando Pride in midweek matchup

Sky Blue FC must pick up three points against the NWSL’s newest team to keep its playoffs hopes alive.

Sky Blue FC (6-7-4, 22 points) returns to Yurcak Field on Wednesday, September 7 to take on the newest NWSL team, the Orlando Pride (6-44-1, 18 points), in a home-and-home series that will conclude on Saturday, September 10.

Wednesday night’s game is a must win for Sky Blue, who could see their goal of making it to the NWSL championship match slip completely out of reach with a loss against the Pride. Depending on how the other four matches Wednesday night fare, Sky Blue could be eliminated from playoff contention if they leave Yurcak Field with anything short of three points.
