Storylines: Portland Thorns at Chicago Red Stars

With a tough opening weekend away to North Carolina in the rear view mirror, the Thorns make the trip out to a depleted Chicago Red Stars side for a Chicago vs Portland soccer double header.

Projected Starting XI

Despite the unconvincing attack last week, there isn’t much squad space for Parsons to maneuver in, so it’s entirely possible that the starting lineup will be unchanged. It’s possible that Elizabeth Ball will enter in Kelli Hubly’s place and Angela Salem is still available for selection for the last time before May.

Chicago are one of the teams most affected by injuries and international absences at the moment.
