HERRIMAN, Utah - Utah Royals FC (1-8-1, 4 pts, 14th NWSL) returns home for the first time since May 3 to take on Kansas City Current (6-0-4, 22 pts, 2nd NWSL) at America First Field this Saturday, May 25 at 8:00pm MT.

The Royals look to pick up their first points since their 0-0 draw against the Houston Dash on April 27. The squad is coming off a three game away stint that ended with a 1-0 loss at the hands of North Carolina Courage at Wakemed Soccer Park.

This is the first time ever in NWSL history that a Utah team will take on a Kansas City side. It also marks the first time that Kate Del Fava will take on her former club. Newly signed international acquisitions Macey Fraser (NZL) and Ana Tejada (ESP) joined the squad this week for training and will be eager to take the field in front of the Royals faithful.
