Hello hello and welcome to coverage of today’s WSL clash between Brighton and Manchester City. Both teams head into this match off the back of an FA Cup quarter-final exit, with Mikey Harris’ side suffering a 4-0 defeat to Manchester United and City losing on penalties to Tottenham.
With just seven league games remaining this season, plenty is at stake this afternoon. Manchester City can’t accept anything less than three points at the Broadfield Stadium if they want to keep up with league leaders Chelsea. The reigning WSL champions cruised to a 3-1 win over London rivals Arsenal at Stamford Bridge on Friday following a dominant performance. Victory for Gareth Taylor’s side today is crucial, but Brighton won’t make it easy for the visitors.
