Seattle Reign’s June road trip continues this afternoon with a visit to the Windy City to face the last place Chicago Stars. This has historically been a very difficult place for the Reign to play, with a record of 3-9-2 in Illinois, but today’s game features a new twist, with it taking place at Soldier Field in downtown Chicago rather than the Stars regular home venue in Bridgeview, Ill.

Keys to the game
- Be smart and decisive in possession
- Limit counterattacking opportunities
- Capitalize on set pieces
- Jess Fishlock picked up a quad injury when she was struck by an errant knee late in the match against San Diego last week. Although head coach Laura Harvey didn’t deem it serious, the club still wants to be cautious with her fitness ahead of the Euros next month and opted to leave her home. Ana-Maria Crnogorčević also continues recovering from a leg injury sustained while on international duty two weeks ago.
- This game is part of a Soldier Field double-header, with Chicago Fire hosting Nashville SC in an MLS match following the conclusion of the NWSL game.
