- Dating again to 2023, the Pride are unbeaten in its final 5 matches towards Chicago, together with the 2024 NWSL Playoffs. Over that five-game span, the Pride have sported a +15 goal-differential.
- Midfielder Luana returned to the pitch for the Pride final Tuesday, her first look since being identified with Hodgkin’s lymphoma on March 29, 2024, and efficiently finishing her remedy.
“Chicago has gone through some changes. Obviously with the new coach coming in, implementing his ways and getting a positive result away at Washington. They’re obviously on a high as well. We have to focus on ourselves. We have to get back to winning ways. We had a really good result last Tuesday night in the Concacaf Champions Cup, so we’re looking to build on top of that performance and that result.”
