Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Reading W & Bristol City W face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the League Cup Women. All the pre-match information is available here!
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Reading W and Bristol City W.
Reading W form and stats
Last season their League Cup Women adventure ended in the group stage.Reading W have played three Wsl 1 Women home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 3 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead.
Reading's last game was hosting Aston Villa W and winning 3-0. The 3-0 win against Aston Villa W was decided after a strong and deadly first half, making the second half more of a journey towards the final whistle.
Preceding that match was a Wsl 1 Women defeat to Everton W (0-3).The Reading W fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 3 in 3 matches. Reading are struggling defensively, conceding on average more than two goals per home game (7 from 3 played).
Bristol City W form and stats
Bristol's mission in League Cup Women last season failed in the final.The Wsl 2 Women season is young and Bristol City W have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 3 away games done and still no victory. 1 draw and 2 defeats so far. The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Bristol City W have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone 14 consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the Birmingham W game.
Bristol lost away at Charlton W (1-2) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. Late heartbreak for Bristol in the Charlton W match, as the deciding 1-2 goal came deep into overtime.
Prior to that match, a home win 2-1 against Sunderland W in the Wsl 2 Women.Bristol have scored 4 goals on their travels this season, from 3 away games in the league. For Bristol, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.
