As Orlando City head to Portland to play the Timbers this coming Sunday, two big soccer games will be going down at home in Orlando, back-to-back. Both Orlando City B and the Orlando Pride are fighting for a spot in the playoffs and a win for both would be huge for their chances.
The season for the Orlando Pride has been a whirlwind. After struggling out of the gate to begin the season, the team has taken the league by storm. With one of the best attacking fronts in the league that includes U.S. Women’s National Team star Alex Morgan and Brazilian National Team star Marta leading the way, the Pride have the most goals scored in the league this year and the second most in league history - and there’s still two games to go in the season.
