How are both teams coming into this?
Racing Louisville return to action after a two-week break in the 2025 NWSL season. Before the hiatus, they enjoyed a solid run, securing three wins in their last five games. A thrilling 3-2 victory over Angel City FC saw them climb into eighth position with 14 points, despite midfielder Kayla Fischer receiving a red card in the 67th minute.
The Utah Royals have been a model of consistency in patches, yet they sit comfortably in mid-table. Their defense has often kept them in games, but they’ll be looking to sharpen their attack and grab full points on the road. In their two head-to-head clashes last season, Racing Louisville edged the Royals 1-0 in the most recent meeting on September 28, 2024.
Our forecast
Expect a cagey affair at the Lynn Family Stadium, with both sides prioritizing defensive solidity early on. Racing Louisville should benefit from home support and momentum, but the Royals won’t make it easy, sitting deep and looking to hit on the counter.
We’re backing a tight scoreline and recommend an Under 2.5 goals market, as well as Both Teams to Score for better value. If you want to play it safer, consider a Draw No Bet on Racing Louisville, who have the edge in form and head-to-head history.
