Many of the Ireland players were in action over the weekend, including fit-again Katie McCabe, who scored the winner in Arsenal’s all-important defeat of Man City.
Ahead of flying to the States, all squad members went through a recovery session on Monday, with the home-based players having competed against a boys’ team yesterday.
Both matches against USA will be live on RTÉ2.
The 8 April encounter takes place at the Q2 Stadium, Austin, Texas with kick-off set for 7.30pm Irish time.
The sides meet again on 11 April at CITYPARK, St Louis, Missouri, with the match due to begin at 12.30am Irish time.
