Match preview: Aston Villa v United Women
FORM GUIDE
Our reverse on Merseyside marked the first time we’ve dropped points in the league since 24 November and brought an end to three straight wins on the road.
With six games to play, and the final three coming against Chelsea, Arsenal and City, it’s probably imperative that we pick up points at Villa this weekend.
The 11th-placed hosts have lost four in a row in the division and Crystal Palace are breathing down their necks in the relegation battle after winning 3-1 at the VBS Community Stadium last Sunday.
Villa’s two victories this term have come at home, while they did hold us to a goalless draw at Leigh in the autumn. They have changed their manager since then, with Natalia Arroyo replacing Robert de Pauw, after Shaun Goater’s interim spell.
