The Portland Thorns and their ten game unbeaten run head East, where they will face the Washington Spirit in a midweek NWSL clash.

Storylines So Far

The Thorns (6-1-7, 25 points) are coming off of a slightly disappointing home draw against the North Carolina Courage, where they saw a lead slip twice. Still, the result (plus results from around the league) propelled Portland to the top spot in the NWSL. They enter tonight’s match in first place in the league, by virtue of their ridiculously high +20 goal differential.
