The Story:
- The Orlando Pride head to Snapdragon Stadium for their second-consecutive road match to square-off with the San Diego Wave.
- The Pride will look to continue their unbeaten streak against the Wave, having taken a 1-0 shutout victory in San Diego a year ago. The two sides then battled to a 2-2 draw later in the season at Exploria Stadium, with Saturday serving as the third meeting between the two clubs in their history.
- Forward Amanda Allen has returned to the Pride from international duty with Canada’s U-20 team. Allen will be available for selection for this match.
Quote of the Week:
“[We’re expecting] another competitive game, obviously their form at home is good. It’s another opportunity for us to win another game of football. It’s going to be a difficult game, they have some good players, but in this league now anyone can win on any day, so we’re hoping to go there and put a really good team performance out there and hopefully come away with three points.” - Head Coach Seb Hines
