Pre-match views
Caretaker head coach Yzzy Taylor: “We’ve had a really strong period over the last few matches, it’s a good opportunity for the girls to see off the season on a high.
“We want to continue the pattern that we have created for ourselves, we’ve earned those results by digging in and showing what we can do as a squad and hopefully we can do that again.
“We’re probably a little bit more familiar with how they play after last time, but I would expect them to change things slightly. We will be ready for them and ready with our game plan.”
Team News
