National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Durham W or Leicester W that keep their silverware dream alive.
It's no vacation for neither Durham nor Leicester W as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Durham W form and stats
Durham W participated in League Cup Women the last season, where they reached the quarter-finals.All-inclusive Wsl 2 Women statistics at home this season for Durham W are 4-0-1 (wins-draws-losses).
The Durham fans got no joy from their last match, a Wsl 2 Women game also here at Maiden Castle Sports Park: A 0-2 defeat against Liverpool W.
A Wsl 2 Women defeat was the result before that one, 1-3 away at Crystal Palace W.The manager L. Sanders will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Coventry United W in only four days.
Durham has scored 7 league goals at home this season, in 5 matches. From these home matches, Durham have conceded only 3 goals.
Leicester W form and stats
Last season their League Cup Women adventure ended in the semi-finals.The manager J. Morgan is not happy with the away performances in the Wsl 1 Women so far, as all 4 matches have been lost. Football is a nightmare at the moment for Leicester who have suffered through a seven match losing streak. If there's light at the end of the tunnel it's certainly not visible for the supporters.
Two away games in a row for Leicester W, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 0-1 versus Brighton W in the Wsl 1 Women. Late heartbreak for Leicester in the Brighton W match, as the deciding 0-1 goal came deep into overtime.
Preceding that, the 1-4 home loss versus Manchester City W.A quick return to home after this game, as Leicester W are hosting Everton W in the Wsl 1 Women only four days away.
There's been a serious shortage of goals from Leicester's away games in the league this season with only 1 goal from 4 matches. For Leicester, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.
