Racing Louisville welcome North Carolina Courage on Saturday, May 23 at 10:00 PM in a National Women's Soccer League fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 2 points split them in the table.

Racing Louisville come into this fixture struggling badly (1W 3L in last 5). North Carolina Courage, meanwhile, arrive drawing too many games (3D in last 5) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.

Despite playing at home, Racing Louisville face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. North Carolina Courage have won 7 of 10 encounters, with 1 draws. Their last encounter ended in Racing Louisville won 1–2. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 3.2 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Racing Louisville a slight edge, but North Carolina Courage are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
