Orlando Pride News Release


ORLANDO, Fla. - Orlando Pride has unveiled its complete 24-game regular season schedule for the 2018 National Women's Soccer League (NWSL) season. For the second consecutive year, the Pride will play 12 games at Orlando City Stadium and 12 matches on the road. The full 2018 schedule can be found here.

In addition, the Pride will be featured eight times on national television during the NWSL Game of the Week on Lifetime, the most of any team. All other matches will be available to watch live on go90 in the U.S. or at NWSLsoccer.com or the NWSL app for international fans.

Single-game tickets for the home opener and the rest of the 2018 season go on sale to the general public on Friday, Feb. 23. Season ticket and group ticket packages are currently available at orlando-pride.com/tickets or by calling (855) ORL-CITY.

For as low as $49, fans can purchase the City and Pride Two-Pack, which includes a ticket to both Orlando City's March 3 home opener vs. D.C. United and the Pride's March 24 home opener vs. Utah Royals FC.

The Pride will open the 2018 season on March 24 against expansion side Utah with a 7:30 p.m. ET kickoff at Orlando City Stadium. That match will mark the first of three matches against the Salt Lake City-based squad, with Orlando making its first of two visits to Rio Tinto Stadium on May 9.

In their third match of the season, the Pride will seek redemption against 2017 Champion Portland Thorns FC on April 15 in a rematch of last year's NWSL semifinal round, which saw Orlando bounced from the postseason. The Sunday match will kickoff at 6 p.m. ET at Providence Park.

The Pride will finish the year with seven home matches in the second half of the season, which includes two, three-game homestands from June 27-July 7 and July 21-August 11. Orlando will welcome 2017 Golden Boot winner Sam Kerr and her new side, the Chicago Red Stars, in its final home match of the regular season on Aug. 25. Tom Sermanni's side then finishes the regular season two weeks later at the new home of 2016 FIFA Women's World Player of the Year Carli Lloyd, traveling to face Sky Blue FC on Sept. 8.

The 2018 playoffs will feature two semifinal matches on the weekend of Sept. 14-16, culminating with the NWSL Championship on Saturday, Sept. 22.
