Seattle Reign’s homestand in Spokane continues this afternoon as they welcome Racing Louisville to the Lilac City for the second of three games at ONE Spokane Stadium. The Reign are coming off a decisive 3-0 win over Kansas City on Wednesday and are on short rest. Louisville last played eight days ago when they earned a 2-2 draw at the Washington Spirit, so they will be coming into the match with much fresher legs but having traveled.

The Reign are 4-1-6 all-time against Racing, which includes a 2-1-3 record at home. They have scored 16 goals and conceded 12. In 2025, Seattle won both meetings against Racing by 1-0 scores and is on a four-game unbeaten streak against them.

Keys to the game

• Maintain midweek momentum
• Be smart in possession against the press
• Manage minutes to stay healthy

Notes

• The Reign injury list has grown with the addition of Maddie Dahlien, but Laura Harvey told reporters on Friday that both Jordyn Bugg and Shae Holmes are “days away” from a return and should be available next weekend. Dahlien’s knock is also not thought to be serious, but the short turnaround from Wednesday meant she did not have enough recovery time. Mia Fishel is expected to be out through the April international break.
• Claudia Dickey is six saves away from breaking the club’s all-time save record, currently held by Hope Solo (187 saves).
• The first 1,000 fans through the gates today will receive a free Reign FC Key Strap.
