The 2025 National Women’s Soccer League is back with Chicago Stars taking on Gotham FC at the SeatGeek Stadium on Friday night. Chicago Stars needed the break to retreat and strategize, following a rough start to the season. Despite firing their head coach, Lorne Donaldson, the Stars have struggled, sitting in 13th spot with six points. But on the brighter side, they have climbed up one place and will be eager to return to start a winning run after the break.
Gotham FC, on the other hand, has been solid this season. They occupy the eighth and final series spot in the table with 18 points from 13 matches. Gotham FC went into the break off a 2-1 win over Bay FC, highlighting their attacking prowess this season. Earlier, they gave league leaders KC Current a good fight despite losing 2-1 at home before bouncing back with a 3-0 win over Utah Royals. They’ll be hungry to continue where they left off before the break.

Our Chicago Stars FC vs Gotham FC Prediction
Chicago Stars are the underdogs in this game, which is understandable. They have struggled for form, especially in attack, where they have scored only 10 goals. Chicago also has one of the worst defenses in the league (27 goals conceded), a weakness that Gotham’s attackers will look to exploit. However, they fought hard in their most recent matches, losing by a solitary goal to Portland Thorns on the road and sharing the spoils 2-2 with Angel City and Seattle Reign. We think Gotham FC will win, although Chicago should get a consolation goal.
Our prediction for Chicago Stars vs Gotham FC: Over 2.5 goals.
