The Orlando Pride will return home on Saturday, June 24th for the second part of their back-to-back clash with the Houston Dash. Here’s what to expect from the Dash on the road. 

Recent Matches

Houston’s last match was against the Pride over the weekend, where the Pride earned a 4-2 win on the road. Houston has struggled a lot this season, winning just two in their nine games so far this year. 

Who’s Hot, Who’s Not

Poliana and Nichelle Prince both earned late goals for the Dash in their recent match against the Pride, and midfielder Andressa earned two assists. But this an offense that has struggled to score this year, including in their game against the Pride. The Dash allowed four unanswered goals before finding the back of the net themselves, and both of those goals came late in the match, with the first goal coming in the 89th minute and the second coming in the 96th. 

Head-to-Head

The Pride won the first of two matches the team will play against each other this year. Last season, the Pride lost only one of the four matches they played against the Dash, giving Orlando an overall 4-1-0 record against Houston.
