NWSL Women Standings & Stats

The NWSL Women 26/27 season is the top-tier women’s professional soccer league in the USA, running from March 14 to November 1, 2026. As of the latest matchday in mid-July, San Diego Wave Women sit at the top of the table. With 102 of 119 scheduled events already finished, the race for the title, European-equivalent playoff spots, and survival at the bottom is intensifying.

NWSL Women Table

The current NWSL Women table shows San Diego Wave Women leading with 28 points from 14 matches (9 wins, 1 draw, 4 losses). They are closely pursued by Portland Thorns Women on 27 points (8 wins, 3 draws, 3 losses). The battle for the top spots remains fierce, with Washington Spirit Women, Utah Royals FC Women, and Kansas City Women all tied on 24 points, though games played vary. Washington Spirit have the best defensive record among the top seven, conceding only 10 goals in 12 fixtures. At the opposite end, the teams outside the top seven face pressure, but specific relegation zone data is not available in the current standings.

Favorites & Title Chances

Based on current positions, points, and remaining matchdays, the title race probabilities are estimated as follows:

• San Diego Wave Women – ~45% chance: They hold a narrow lead with 28 points and a solid goal difference (+8). Their recent 2-0 win over Gotham FC demonstrates strong form, but the tight gap means they must maintain consistency.
• Portland Thorns Women – ~30% chance: Just one point behind with a game in hand, Portland boast the best attack in the top seven (24 goals scored). Their convincing 4-0 result against Racing Louisville underlines their offensive threat.
• Washington Spirit Women – ~15% chance: Lying third with 24 points and two games in hand on the leader, their defensive solidity (only 10 conceded) could be decisive if they convert draws into wins.

Kansas City Women (the most successful team historically and last season’s winner) and Utah Royals FC Women are also in the mix but have a slightly lower probability due to less favorable form or games played gaps.
