Sheffield Utd W form and stats

With 3 Wsl 2 Women wins, 1 draw and 6 defeats from their home games, Sheffield Utd W are certainly not brimming with confidence.

Sheffield Utd W are very eager to stop a potential losing streak at Bramall Lane, having lost their two previous games here.

The Sheffield Utd W goalkeeper Frances Stenson is looking to record 90 more "clean sheet" minutes as his team have now played 209 minutes without conceding a goal in the Wsl 2 Women.

Sheffield Utd W are returning here after visiting Coventry United W and winning with a 4-0 scoreline. As indicated by the result mentioned above, Sheffield played a great game against Coventry United W and beat them comfortably. Expectations are high for this one.

Sunderland W form and stats

Sunderland W might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match.

Preceding that, the 1-2 home loss versus Crystal Palace W.
