The Story:

The Pride enter the weekend looking to get back into winning form after suffering back-to-back losses in their last two contests.

Orlando last faced Washington on May 20 of this campaign, handing the Spirit their first loss of the year in a 2-1 win at Exploria Stadium.

Washington comes into the weekend having yet to drop a result at home in 2023.

Saturday's match will see the Pride face the Spirit without their pair of Brazilian internationals, as Marta and Adriana have joined the Brazilian National Team in preparation for the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup.

The Spirit will also be missing key players, including four headed to the USWNT in Trinity Rodman, Ashley Sanchez, Andi Sullivan and Aubrey Kingsbury.
