Gotham take 11.8 shots/90. Spirit have allowed more than that in three out of the fifteen NWSL matches Adrian has managed. Once was against Utah and once was in the PK shootout against Louisville.
In short, I think this should be a good matchup. Depending on how much one values managers - of which data tends to be skeptical - my instinct is that the Spirit are better positioned than some of the full-season and momentum-considered models suggest. By no means, though, is this scientific.
