The Chicago Red Stars made a positive start to their 2022 NWSL Challenge Cup bid with a come-from-behind 3-1 win in Houston last week, and they will be looking to build on that as they face Kansas City at home. The Red Stars sit atop the Central group standings with 3 points, while KC are in second with 1. The match will kick off at 7:30 PM Central Time at SeatGeek Stadium in Bridgeview.
The Red Stars will have a few key absences. Kealia Watt is out with a long term knee injury and Morgan Gautrat will be out for a few more weeks with a calf injury, while Rachel Hill is also still injured with a hip injury.
