Sorry we’re a day late this week but the combination of a Tuesday night Pride match and me coming down with a summer cold forced us to push it back. I apologize in advance for my voice, which is rougher than usual.

We’ve got a couple of teams heading in different directions, it seems. Orlando City can’t quite seem to get over the hump and turn things around. Meanwhile, the Orlando Pride seem like they’re on the cusp of making a run toward the NWSL playoffs as Alex Morgan and Marta continue to grow their chemistry on the field. We’ve got breakdowns of the Lions at Montreal and the Pride’s two home matches.

Orlando City at New York Red Bulls is a huge game for the Lions’ playoff hopes and we’ve invited Jason Iapicco from the Red Bull Rant podcast onto the show to discuss what might take place at Red Bull Arena on Saturday.

Plus, we’re talking OCB, the Yoshimar Yotun signing, and much more, including #AskTMLPC, and our key match-ups and score predictions for Orlando at New York!

Here’s how things went:

0:13- Talking Yoshi Yotun, Orlando City at Montreal, two Pride matches, and OCB at FC Cincinnati.

43:30- Jason Iapicco from the Red Bull Rant podcast jumps on with us to discuss New York’s season and what might happen on Saturday.

1:02:05- Some bad news with Jonathan Spector picking up a knock on Wednesday in training, plus our #AskTMLPC mailbag and our key match-ups and sad predictions for Saturday.
