It's the second chance for points this campaign as Reading W and Arsenal W fight it out.
It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only three days ago in the Champions League Women. That game was also an away game, at Slavia Prague W. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.
Reading W form and stats
The season before, Reading W's league results were 5 wins, 9 draws and 8 losses, providing 7th place in the Women's Super League. Over these 22 matches they scored 25 goals and conceded 41. Performing as the home side in the previous season Reading W generated 2-5-4 (win-draw-lost) with 11 goals and 20 conceded.
Times are rough for the home team, having gone 215 minutes without scoring a league goal. N. Harding was the last player to find the net.
No payout for Reading W in their previous match, an away game at Manchester United W that ended in defeat 0-2.
A defeat was the result before that one, 0-5 away at Chelsea W.Arsenal W form and stats
Let's have a look at how Arsenal W performed last season in the Women's Super League: They landed a 3rd position in the league table after playing out 15 victories, 3 draws and 4 defeats. In total they scored 63 and conceded 15 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 7 - drew 1 and lost 3 with 33/9 goals scored/conceded.
Two travels in a row for Arsenal, whose manager J. Eidevall could celebrate last time after the Champions League Women win against Slavia Prague W. As mentioned above, Arsenal W was the only team on the pitch versus Slavia Prague W in their previous game, winning 4-0. This could be a tougher task. V. Miedema certainly enjoyed Arsenal's last game versus Slavia Prague W, appearing multiple times in the match report with three goals and the 4-0 victory.
That result followed a home victory 3-2 versus Chelsea W in the Women's Super League.Head 2 Head
Stats for the former eight meetings featuring these two sides are: zero wins for Reading, two draws and six wins for Arsenal W. Over 2,5 goals: five times; under 2,5 goals: three games.Top Goalscorers
