Thorns vs Reign: Previews, how to watch, match thread [7:00]
The Thorns play their final regular-season match this evening against the Seattle Reign, a contest that will likely determine playoff seeding for both teams. A Portland win means the Thorns end up in second and host a semifinal match against the Reign. A draw would put them in third place and send them to Seattle, while a loss would put them in either third or fourth, depending on the result of Chicago-Utah tomorrow.
Portland will be missing Hayley Raso after the winger suffered a fractured spine against the Spirit, and Meghan Klingenberg is listed as questionable due to an adductor strain. Seattle, meanwhile, has Megan Rapinoe, Allie Long, and Bev Yanez all in the questionable column.
