The National Women's Soccer League has replaced its 2020 season with a 25-game tournament called the NWSL Challenge Cup. It begins June 27 and concludes July 26, all games taking place without fans in the Salt Lake City area. The 2020 NWSL Challenge Cup opener and final will air on CBS, with all other matches streamed on CBS All Access.

Coming off two straight league titles, the North Carolina Courage have opened as +160 favorites (risk $100 to win $160) in the latest NWSL Challenge Cup odds from William Hill, followed by the Chicago Red Stars (3-1), Portland Thorns (5-1) and OL Reign (6-1).

For the NWSL Challenge Cup 2020, the model is fading the Chicago Red Stars, even though they're the second-biggest favorites at 3-1. "They just lost top scorer Sam Kerr to Chelsea," Norheim told SportsLine. "Time will tell whether Yuki Nagasato will step up to fill her shoes in terms of goal-scoring."

The model is also fading the Seattle-based OL Reign since star Megan Rapinoe won't be playing. "Megan is an important member of the squad, and if she were with the rest of the team, [I feel] we would be able to accomplish something big as a club," her coach, Farid Benstiti, told a French website.
