The surprise party is over for the Orlando Pride. With a dramatic turnaround last year, the league champions are now among the teams to beat as the 2025 National Women's Soccer League season opens. “We did really well last year and so I don’t think we need to change anything.

The league’s premier games are played Friday nights on Prime Video, and Orlando only had three last season. There’s no fewer than eight in 2025.

With the excitement surrounding the new season, all eyes will be on the Pride as they aim to defend their title and set the tone for another championship campaign.
