  "textContent": "For the second time this season, Seattle Reign are looking to rebound quickly following an embarrassing shutout loss. This time, the venue is Shell Energy Stadium in Houston, where the Reign visit the Dash for a Friday night match, and the weather might play a factor. Most of southeast Texas, including the Houston area, is under a flood watch through early Saturday morning due to heavy rains. Thunderstorms are also in the forecast throughout the day, although those are expected to taper off before kickoff.\n\nThe Reign have an 18-6-5 record against Houston, which includes an 8-4-3 record on the road. The Reign have scored 50 goals and conceded 22. Last weekend, the Reign suffered an ignominious 3-0 home loss to Utah, while the Dash lost 1-0 to the North Carolina Courage at home.\n\nMatch preview: Seattle Reign vs. Houston DashThe Reign head on the road looking to redeem themselves after a poor home performance.Sounder at HeartSusie Rantz\n\n### Keys to the game\n\n  * Start strong and smart\n  * Be adaptable to a soggy, slow pitch\n  * Control the flanks to deny crosses into the box\n\n\n\n# Notes\n\n  * While the exact details of Jess Fishlock’s lower leg injury are not yet public, the team got a bit of good news when x-rays came back negative and other tests revealed that her injury likely has a several-month recovery timeline rather than being season- and career-ending.\n  * Sofia Cedeño is off the injury report and available for selection today, but Jordyn Bugg and Ruby Hladek remain out.\n\n\n\n### Injuries, absences, suspensions\n\n**Reign:** OUT: Lynn Biyendolo (Maternity Leave), Jordyn Bugg (Leg), Jess Fishlock (Lower Leg), Ruby Hladek (Leg)\n\n**Dash:** OUT: Makenzy Robbe (Knee - SEI)\n\n## Recent form\n\n**Reign** : LWWDL (3-1-2, 0 GD; 6th place)\n**Dash** : WWLWL (3-0-2, +3 GD; 8th place)\n\n## Officials\n\nREF: Abdou Ndiaye; AR1: Melissa Beck; AR2: Karsten Gillwald; 4TH: Muhammad Kaleia; VAR: Elton Garcia; AVAR: Kevin Huet\n\n## How to Watch\n\n**Match date/kickoff time** : Friday, May 1st, 5 PM PT\n\n**Venue** : Shell Energy Stadium, Houston, Texas\n\n**Broadcast** : Victory+ (Josh Eastern & Jill Loyden), Fox 13+ (Seattle area; Steve Schalnger, Laura Schott & Kelyn Rowe)\n\n**Radio:** KJR 950 AM (Jackson Felts, Stephanie Verdoia & Kwame Appiah\n\n**Is this game available to stream for free in the US?** Yes\n\n## Lineups\n\n## Highlights\n\nFirst half comes to an end with neither team finding the back of the net.
