NWSL picks for OL Reign vs. Orlando Pride

Before you tune in to Friday's match, you need to see the NWSL picks from SportsLine's soccer expert Brandt Sutton. Sutton, a former collegiate soccer player, has been SportsLine's top soccer editor for more than five years. He has followed soccer closely for much longer and factors in managerial tactics, projected lineups and past performances to make the most-informed decisions possible, keeping his finger on the pulse of the game all over the globe. Sutton finished 2022 as SportsLine's top soccer expert with a 165-130-2 mark, returning nearly $2,200 for $100 players. He also excelled in Serie A with a 63-39-1 mark, returning nearly $1,600.

For Orlando Pride vs. OL Reign, Sutton is picking Over 2.5 goals to be scored. The Reign have had no problem scoring against the Pride in the past, racking up 10 goals over the last four meetings. However, the expert notes that both teams are also scoring at a high rate. The Reign have scored two goals in three of their last four league games, while the Pride, despite conceding 21 goals through 14 league matches this season, have scored at least twice in two of their last three home games.

"I expect we'll see an entertaining affair when these two square off on Friday, so I'm backing Over 2.5 goals," Sutton told SportsLine. Stream the game here.
