Kansas City Current Set to Host Bay FC in NWSL Matchup

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (May 10, 2025) — The Kansas City Current aims to bounce back from two consecutive losses as they host Bay FC on Sunday, May 11, during National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) action at CPKC Stadium. The match is set to kick off at 12:50 p.m. ET.
After a strong start to the 2025 season with five wins in their first five matches, the Current (5-2-0, 15 points) faltered in their recent travels, suffering defeats against the North Carolina Courage and the Seattle Reign. Despite their recent road struggles, Kansas City remains at the top of the NWSL standings.
In contrast, Bay FC (2-3-2, 8 points) has also had a rocky run following their opening victories. Most recently, Bay FC lost a nail-biter against the San Diego Wave, conceding a stoppage-time goal that dashed their hopes for a point. The team is looking to reclaim momentum on the road against a top opponent.
Bays FC tied their last three matches with mixed results, and will aim to improve their standing after currently sitting in 10th place in the league table. Key player Karlie Lema scored in their last outing, but it wasn’t enough to secure a positive result.
This match holds special significance as it falls on Mother’s Day, and fans can expect several festivities at the stadium, including giveaways for the first 5,000 attendees. Kansas City aims to leverage its home advantage, as they have won all three of their home outings this season.
Bay FC faces a crucial challenge in Kansas City, where they have previously struggled. In their last two meet-ups, the Current emerged victorious, including a 1-0 win in October 2024, thanks to a goal from Temwa Chawinga.
Fans can tune into the match on ESPN or through various streaming platforms. As the teams prepare for kickoff, both will be looking for essential points in the highly competitive NWSL.
