Even with all the injuries, the model remains confident the Pride will come out on top in the opening playoff round. Since day one, the data has emphasized offensive potential over defensive structure. With that in mind, the Pride will look to Marta and McCutcheon to break apart Dahlien and company.

Can someone help me get @reignfc.com on the horn? I need to know who to CC on my resume submission for a coaching gig.

It’s almost time! This year, the model hasn’t identified any upsets. The conclusion seems to be that the seeding is accurate, with the closest matchup being the Thorns vs. Wave in Round 1. Otherwise, it’s straight down the pipe; Kansas City comes out on top against the Washington Spirit.

Unsurprisingly, she isn’t an offensive powerhouse, but there is some upside. She’s above average in both shots and expected points added. What’s more intriguing is her upward tick in key passes. Expect her to stay active in the attack by leveraging the movement we discussed earlier.

The real meat of her game comes in her disruptive play and she has spades across the board. She does better distributing than she does receiving, a trade off that is easy to make when we look at the big picture.

Let's start with passing. Simply put, this system should fit her like a slipper. She passes a lot and isn't afraid to be courageous when she moves the ball. For a team like the Courage who likes to build from the back, she will do just fine.

When I look at the Chicago Stars, I see heart. A squad that has endured so much and still leaves everything on the pitch. The Stars embody why I watch this game. It’s easy to dominate from the top, but it’s something else entirely to fight your way up from the bottom.
Go Stars!

Rowdy Audi welcomes the Stars this afternoon. The model favors the Spirit, but Chicago has been playing better of late-going all 12 rounds with the Courage, Reign, Bay, and Gotham.
They’ll look to keep the magic alive against a Spirit side trying to gain space near the top of the table.

Throughout this experiment I’ve given myself some grace. I have no idea what I’m doing… but there’s no way, right?
There’s no way this game is this close? Skepticism aside, KC is out for revenge against the Courage as one of only two teams to beat them during their campaign so far.

Moultrie listed as questionable presents a wrinkle, but make no mistake, on paper this Thorns squad should make short work of the visiting Utah Royals.
However, Tanaka and company have given us plenty of reasons not to count them out. Their resilience will need to continue on the road.

Gotham has a rare opportunity! They face an Orlando squad without Barbra Banda! The model is nervous about the offensive output, and the Pride need to answer the bell this week to settle the question: What does this team look like without one of the league’s best goalscorers?

Houston and Racing will kick us off this week, and both are finding success! Taking everything into account, the model is predicting a DRAW and given the recent run of matches ending that way, it’s hard to argue.
That said, Houston needs this one to stay in playoff contention!

I disagree. Both are underperforming in what I would consider key areas for their position: goals, points added, and primary assists. If anything, Shaw stands out because she consistently gets into more dangerous positions (xGoals, xAssists, and xPoints Added).

The Courage are shopping for their first win since the break and the Stars continue to surprise. Ludmila and company have a rare chance to exploit the midfield with NC captain Denise O'Sullivan out.
Meanwhile, this would be a great game for Shaw and Sanchez to get back on track.
