North CarolinaDenver Summit FC, ranked 11th, faces North Carolina Courage, ranked 7th, in a contest that could determine the pace of the season. Despite a slight edge in points (4 points), the Courage's recent form and higher expected goals (1.51 vs. 1.69) suggest a competitive matchup. The model projects a tight, low-scoring game with Denver Summit FC narrowly edging out a 2-1 victory.
