Renée Slegers has made four changes to the her starting XI for this afternoon’s Women’s Super League clash with West Ham United.
Frida Maanum and Leah Williamson miss out on the matchday squad through illness and injury respectively, and are replaced by Stina Blackstenius and Laia Codina.
With a busy schedule up to the next international break, Renée has also opted to rotate her full-backs, with Smilla Holmberg coming in for Emily Fox and Taylor Hinds starting in place of Katie McCabe.
Lotte Wubben-Moy remains from the back four that started last weekend’s 2-0 win over London City, as does goalkeeper Anneke Borbe.
Alessia Russo moves back into midfield alongside Mariona Caldentey and captain Kim Little, while Olivia Smith and Chloe Kelly start on the wings, either side of Blackstenius.
