On Thursday, the NJ/NY Gotham FC 2026 NWSL schedule was unveiled. This season sees the regular season expand from 26 games in 2025 to 30 in 2026. This is due to the league adding two new expansion sides in Boston Legacy FC and Denver Summit FC.
The format for this season is the double round-robin, something NWSL fans have grown accustomed to in recent years, with 15 home and 15 away games against the other teams in NWSL. Despite the increase in matches, the actual timeframe of the season is the same as last year, meaning Gotham FC will play four regular-season midweek games, up from just the one that was played in 2025.
