Gotham FC has nine 2026 NWSL regular-season matches listed from August 28 through Decision Day on November 1: four at Sports Illustrated Stadium and five away. The run includes national windows on Prime Video, CBS, ION, ABC and CBS Sports Network, with the exact ESPN-network assignment for Decision Day still TBA.

This guide was checked August 28, 2026, before the Portland kickoff. Results and listings can change after publication. Use Gotham's live team schedule for the current match status, score and local-time display.
Gotham FC's 2026 NWSL season at a glance
The complete league campaign is a balanced 30-match schedule: 15 home games at Sports Illustrated Stadium and 15 road games. The remaining count below is a moving snapshot taken before the August 28 Portland match, not a claim that all nine will still be upcoming when you read this page.

The regular season ends at home against Utah Royals on November 1 at 5 p.m. ET as part of league-wide Decision Day. Gotham's official announcement says eight clubs advance to the playoffs, but the team's participation and seed depend on final standings. Do not add a quarterfinal to the calendar until qualification and hosting are confirmed.
Gotham also played other 2026 competitions, including the Challenge Cup and international club events. Those results matter to the club's year, but they do not belong inside the 30-match NWSL regular-season count. The live Gotham schedule labels the competition on every card so similarly dated events are not mixed together.
Remaining Gotham FC 2026 schedule
All times below are Eastern and the list was checked before Gotham vs Portland on August 28. If that game has finished, its score belongs on the live results page rather than in an “upcoming” table. Recheck the current TV schedule before every kickoff.
| Date | Match | Venue | Time ET | Watch |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fri., Aug. 28 | Gotham vs Portland Thorns | Sports Illustrated Stadium | 8 p.m. | Prime Video |
| Sun., Sept. 6 | Gotham at Denver Summit | Centennial Stadium | 2 p.m. | CBS, Paramount+ |
| Fri., Sept. 11 | Gotham at Racing Louisville | Lynn Family Stadium | 6:30 p.m. | NWSL+ |
| Sat., Sept. 19 | Gotham at NC Courage | First Horizon Stadium | 6:30 p.m. | ION |
| Fri., Sept. 25 | Gotham vs Chicago Stars | Sports Illustrated Stadium | 8 p.m. | Prime Video |
| Sun., Oct. 4 | Gotham vs Angel City | Sports Illustrated Stadium | 12 p.m. | ABC |
| Sat., Oct. 17 | Gotham at Washington Spirit | Audi Field | 12:30 p.m. | CBS, Paramount+ |
| Sun., Oct. 25 | Gotham at Orlando Pride | Inter&Co Stadium | 3 p.m. | CBS Sports Network |
| Sun., Nov. 1 | Gotham vs Utah Royals | Sports Illustrated Stadium | 5 p.m. | ESPN network TBA |
Bold matchups are home dates. The first three September games create a home-away-away-away sequence from the August 28 checkpoint, followed by two consecutive home dates. Gotham then finishes with two road games before returning for Decision Day. That travel shape can help with planning, but it is not evidence of future results.
Decision Day warning: “ESPN network TBA” means the window is reserved within ESPN's package; it does not identify ABC, ESPN or ESPN2 for Gotham vs Utah. Wait for the game-level assignment before choosing a TV package or setting a recording.
Gotham home games and Sports Illustrated Stadium
At the August 28 checkpoint, Gotham's four remaining home dates are Portland on August 28, Chicago on September 25, Angel City on October 4 and Utah on November 1. All are listed at Sports Illustrated Stadium, 600 Cape May Street in Harrison, New Jersey. The venue may still appear as “Red Bull Arena” in older feeds or saved calendars; use the live club page and current stadium name when navigating.
Remaining home calendar
- Aug. 28: Portland — Pride Night
- Sept. 25: Chicago — Celebración de la Comunidad
- Oct. 4: Angel City — Scouts Day on the live match card
- Nov. 1: Utah — Fan Appreciation and Decision Day
Arrival checklist
- Load the mobile ticket into a wallet before reaching the gate.
- Check PATH or parking conditions on match day; Harrison station is described by the club as about a seven-minute walk.
- Bring a card or mobile payment because the venue is cashless.
- Recheck the event bag policy; the current guide lists a 14×14×6-inch maximum and prohibits backpacks.
Theme names help identify the date but do not change the match ticket. Giveaways, group offers, pregame activities and gate times can have separate rules or limited supplies. Open the specific event card from the Gotham schedule, then follow its official ticket and details links rather than relying on an undated promotion copied elsewhere.
For transit, parking, accessibility and prohibited-item questions, use the club's matchday guide on the day you travel. A policy cited in this article is a planning clue, not permission to bring an item: venue staff and the current event notice control entry.
How to watch Gotham FC in 2026
Read the complete label beside the match before opening an app. Gotham's remaining schedule uses six named destinations, and similarly branded channels are not interchangeable. In particular, CBS is a broadcast network while CBS Sports Network is a separate cable channel.
| Listing | Remaining Gotham date(s) | Access check |
|---|---|---|
| Prime Video | Aug. 28, Sept. 25 | Active eligible Prime Video access and the exact event page |
| CBS, Paramount+ | Sept. 6, Oct. 17 | Local CBS reception/provider or the plan carrying the live local feed |
| NWSL+ | Sept. 11 | Official event availability for your location and device |
| ION | Sept. 19 | Local over-the-air reception or a participating TV/streaming service |
| ABC | Oct. 4 | Local ABC affiliate, antenna reception or eligible provider |
| CBS Sports Network | Oct. 25 | A TV or live-TV package that explicitly includes CBSSN |
| ESPN network TBA | Nov. 1 | Wait for the exact network, then check that feed's requirement |
Potential over-the-air reception makes some CBS, ABC or ION telecasts available without a streaming subscription in covered U.S. markets, but signal and affiliate carriage vary. Prime Video and cable channels generally require eligible paid access. “On Paramount+” also does not mean every plan carries the live local CBS station.
International rights can be different from the U.S. row. Use the match's official event page in your territory and avoid unauthorized streams. Our NWSL viewing guide explains the partner families; the live TV schedule remains the source for a changed game assignment.
Results, standings and the playoff race
Gotham's team page keeps finished matches below upcoming fixtures, with the score and final status attached to each row. That is the quickest way to answer “what was the Gotham score?” without confusing a 2026 league match with the club's Challenge Cup or international results.
Standings snapshot — August 28, 2026 at 6 a.m. ET
1st · 44 points · 13-5-3
Gotham had played 21 league games, scored 26 goals, conceded 13 and held a +13 goal difference. Washington Spirit and Portland Thorns were next on 37 points. These values precede the August 28 match and will become historical after later results.
All 16 clubs share one table, and the top eight qualify for the single-elimination playoffs. A win is worth three points, a draw one and a loss zero. The heavier line below eighth place shows the current cutoff, not a fixed target: on the snapshot it was 28 points, but every remaining result can move both the line and the teams above it.
- Check games played first. Comparing points alone can mislead when one club has a match in hand.
- Then compare goal difference. It is the first listed tiebreak after points in the current rules summary, followed by wins and goals scored.
- Separate qualification from seeding. Reaching the top eight earns a berth; finishing higher affects matchups and potential hosting.
- Use completed results, not form guesses. The schedule page marks a game FT before its score should be included in a record.
Open the live NWSL standings for the current position, points, form and next match. Then open the Gotham results list to audit which score changed the record. This two-page check is safer than a search snippet that may show yesterday's table.
Printable schedules, calendar tools and time zones
Choose the format by what you need it to do. A subscribed calendar is best for future updates, a printable page or PDF is best for a visible snapshot, and CSV or Excel is best for sorting travel, home dates or broadcasters. None replaces the official match card close to kickoff.
| Format | Best use | Update behavior |
|---|---|---|
| Calendar subscription | Phone reminders and local-time display | Can receive feed changes when the app refreshes |
| Imported ICS | Editable one-time event copies | Static snapshot; does not stay linked |
| Printable/PDF | Wall, desk or travel folder | Static; mark the creation date |
| CSV/Excel | Filtering and trip budgeting | Static export; download again after changes |
Build a Gotham-only feed through the calendar tool, or narrow it to home or away matches. Use the printable schedule for paper and the download tool for PDF, ICS, CSV or spreadsheet output.
Time-zone handling matters at the end of the season. The remaining table is in Eastern Time, but November 1 is in EST after the U.S. clock change while earlier dates are in EDT. Let a current calendar or schedule converter calculate local time instead of subtracting one fixed offset from every game. Then confirm both local date and kickoff on the event card—an evening U.S. match may fall on the next day abroad.
Gotham FC 2026 schedule questions answered
When is the next Gotham FC game?
Because “next” changes after every final whistle, use the top card on the live Gotham schedule. At this article's August 28 pre-kickoff checkpoint, Portland at Gotham was next at 8 p.m. ET on Prime Video. If that card now shows a score, the following fixture—not this sentence—is the current answer.
How many NWSL matches does Gotham play in 2026?
Gotham has 30 regular-season league matches, divided into 15 home and 15 away. Challenge Cup, Concacaf and FIFA club matches are separate competitions and should not be added to that league total. Playoff games would also be additional and depend on qualification.
Where does Gotham FC play home games?
The 2026 NWSL home schedule is at Sports Illustrated Stadium, 600 Cape May Street, Harrison, New Jersey 07029. Older feeds may display the venue's former Red Bull Arena name. Always check the event card because a special competition or exceptional league event can use another stadium.
What channel is the Gotham FC game on?
It varies by date. The remaining schedule includes Prime Video, CBS/Paramount+, NWSL+, ION, ABC and CBS Sports Network, while the exact ESPN network for Decision Day is TBA. Open the TV schedule on match day and do not treat CBS and CBSSN as the same channel.
Where can I see Gotham scores and results?
Finished league matches stay on the team schedule with an FT status and final score. Use its result filter when you only want completed games. For context, compare the updated record and points on the live standings; a cached search result may lag the latest final.
Can I get a printable Gotham FC schedule?
Yes. Filter the printable or download tool to Gotham and choose a timezone, date range and home/away scope. Put the creation date on any PDF or paper copy because it will not update itself. For automatic revisions, create a Gotham-only calendar subscription and still recheck the game card.
Where should I buy Gotham FC tickets?
Start with Gotham's official ticket page. At the freshness checkpoint it identified Sports Illustrated Tickets as the exclusive seller for 2026 single-game inventory. Confirm the opponent, date, venue, seat, fees and transfer/refund terms before paying; a search ad or resale listing is not automatically an authorized primary ticket.
Primary sources and freshness
Match dates, times, venues and watch labels were checked against Gotham FC's official live schedule on August 28, 2026. Home planning comes from the club's matchday guide. New official event cards supersede this dated table whenever they differ.
