Week 6 officially kicked off on Tuesday night, when the Thorns lit up Providence Park in a 4-1 win over Gotham FC, but the fun doesn’t end there. With a full slate of matches this weekend, including a 2024 semifinal rematch between the Washington Spirit and Gotham FC—the second Rivalries presented by Ally match of the season—expect rivalries and redemption arcs this weekend with a dash of classic NWSL After Dark chaos.

North Carolina Courage vs. Kansas City Current – 7:00 PM ET
How to watch: NWSL+
This Saturday, the undefeated No. 1 Kansas City Current will roll into Cary looking to extend their historic start to the season, currently at 5-0-0 with a league-record nine straight regular season victories reaching back to 2024. Saturday could also see them set a new consecutive multigoal games record, with their streak currently at seven. With Temwa Chawinga’s innate ability to find the goal and Lo’eau LaBonta’s steady leadership in midfield, KC has looked unstoppable. But the Courage, led by Denise O’Sullivan and rising talent Jaedyn Shaw, have home field advantage and plenty of motivation to win. NC will need a complete performance to slow down the league leaders.
