The international break is done, and Bay FC is set to get back on the pitch in front of their home supporters. Sunday afternoon, they’ll play host to Chicago Stars FC at PayPal Park in San Jose.
The game will also be the club’s Women’s Empowerment Night, with a special guest appearance by Jen Beattie, who will be the voice of the club for the day.
It’s the Stars’ lone visit to the Bay Area this year, and they will be making the journey when both teams have a case to prove. Bay FC wants to bounce back after taking their first loss of the year in a 2-0 defeat to Washington on March 28.
Although the scoreline, Bay’s second half was filled with hope as they prevented the hosts from taking one single shot on target after half time.
Chicago, on the other hand, continues to pursue their first points of the season. The Stars have yet to secure a win or draw in three games, last losing 1-0 against Racing Louisville FC on March 31. However, there were positives during the break — some of their players scored while playing on international duty, boosting the team’s confidence going into Week 4.
Bay FC heads into the weekend at 1-1-1 and four points, while the Stars come in still seeking to register their first mark in the standings.
