With the regular season Big Ten Championship already clinched, the Wisconsin women’s soccer team (11-4-3, 8-1-1 Big Ten) will take on Northwestern (12-4-2, 6-3-1 Big Ten) in their final home game before the conference tournament. With a win, UW will clinch the No. 1 seed in the upcoming Big Ten Tournament.
Last time out
The two teams last squared off in October 2014 in what was a decisive 2-0 victory for the then-No. 12 ranked Badgers. The game came down to converting opportunities as Northwestern outshot Wisconsin 20-8, but still came up short as the Badgers’ Genevieve Richard racked up 10 saves.
