Andrée Jeglertz preview

The City boss addressed the media on Friday afternoon and spoke on our opponents Arsenal and what he feels we can expect from them.

“Their central midfield is the engine of their team, we need to make sure we’re aware of that and also they have wingers who can challenge us, new players they’ve signed,” said Jeglertz.

“There are a lot of different threats in that team so we can’t just focus on one or two things. They know us and we know them well. It will be an exciting game.”

Previous meeting

It was a narrow defeat last time we faced Arsenal, with the Gunners coming out on top 1-0.

Olivia Smith was the only goalscorer of the game, putting the hosts ahead at the Emirates Stadium after just 17 minutes.

But that loss is still, in fact, the last time City tasted defeat in any competition.

Last time out

City remain unbeaten in the UEFA Women’s Champions League.

We recorded another stalemate, this time a 1-1 draw with Real Madrid at the Joie Stadium on Thursday evening as we welcomed the return of European nights to our home. 

Linda Caicedo put the hosts ahead in the first half but Bunny Shaw’s superb second half strike secured an important point in the League Phase and extended our unbeaten run in all competitions to six.
