Welcome to the match thread for the Orlando Pride’s first away game of the 2018 NWSL season. This is the first meeting between Orlando and Washington in a game that will be missing all of its biggest stars. Rose Lavelle and Marta are both out, while Alex Morgan is questionable. There is a total of 11 players that will miss today’s NWSL Game of the Week and another two questionable.
Last week, the Pride and the Spirit both failed to win. The Pride gave up an early goal against NWSL newcomers Utah Royals FC.
