The match

Manchester City Women will travel to Walton Hall Park to take on Everton Women as they look to build on their fine start to the season. City go into this game placed fourth and with 12 points from six games in the Women’s Super League while Everton are seventh on nine points. In their last league game, Everton were defeated 3-0 by Manchester United and they will be looking to avoid a second straight defeat to Manchester City, having lost 4-0 in their last meeting. This hasn’t been the best fixture for Everton, losing in each of the last 10 meetings with City and conceding 29 goals in the process. Everton have managed just four goals in that period. In their three home matches this season, Everton have registered two losses and a win.

Manchester City thrashed Reading 3-0 in their last game, making it a fifth straight win in all competitions and also the fifth straight game in which they scored more than a goal. In the league, it was their fourth consecutive win. Jamaican Khadija Shaw has been the most notable contributor to City’s rise this season; she has scored seven times so far and is the league’s top scorer. Three of her goals were crucially, the opening goals and City will rely on her again here, to improve on their away league run, having won two and lost two of the four played. In their last five matches across all competitions, City have four clean sheets and they’ve conceded just one goal in the five games.
