Continental Cup preview: Everton Women v Man Utd Women on 4 November 2020

[ad_1]

FORM GUIDE

The Toffees and United sit second and third in the WSL table respectively. Both sides have 13 points, having secured four wins and a point each so far, although Everton have a superior goal difference of four, thanks to big away wins over Aston Villa (6-0) and Bristol City (4-0). Last time out in the league, the Reds got our own big win on the road, seeing off West Ham United 4-2 courtesy of goals from Alessia Russo (2), Tobin Heath and Christen Press. Everton, meanwhile, were held to a 2-2 draw at home by Brighton & Hove Albion, but they’ve played since, losing 3-1 to Manchester City, after extra-time, in the weekend’s Women’s FA Cup final.

Both sides are yet to get points on the board in this season’s Continental Cup. United lost 3-1 at Liverpool in our Group C opener, while the Toffees went down to Manchester City by the same scoreline. Only the group winners are guaranteed to progress to the knockout stages, alongside the two best runners-up from the six groups, meaning the losers of this game would face an uphill task to qualify.
