Welcome to your match thread for the Orlando Pride at the Portland Thorns, as the Pride look for their first win of the season. This is the first meeting of the season between Orlando and Portland. The Pride return to Portland on May 12 and the Thorns visit Orlando on Aug. 11. Once again the Pride will be without some of its key players, but the story is the same for the Thorns.
Tonight is the home opener for Portland (1-1-0, 3 pts), the defending NWSL champion.
The Pride are winless against Portland, going 0-4-1 in 2016 and 2017, including last year’s NWSL semifinals.
