Depending on results elsewhere, Gareth Taylor’s side could move to the WSL summit with victory but, against the reigning champions, we’ll need to be at our best to make that ambition a reality.
It’s sure to be a captivating encounter on Women’s Football Weekend, with a bumper crowd befitting the occasion.
The fixture will be the second occasion this season in which we have sold out at the Academy Stadium, having also done so against Arsenal last month.
