Jonas Eidevall has stuck with the starting XI that thrashed Lyon 5-1 on Wednesday evening for Sunday’s WSL clash against Liverpool.
That means Vivianne Miedema again starts on the bench with Frida Maanum in the advanced midfield role. Laura Wienroither and Katie McCabe will play at full-back with Lotte Wubben-Moy and Steph Catley at centre-half.
Caitlin Foord and Beth Mead will flank Stina Blackstenius upfront. This is the first time Arsenal have not started the midfield trio of Walti, Little and Miedema in the WSL since February. Lina Hurtig is not in the squad, I don’t know why yet but will ask!
1.Zinsberger; 26.Wienroither, 3.Wubben-May, 7.Catley, 15.McCabe; 13.Walti, 10.Little(c), 12.Maanum, 9.Mead, 19.Foord; 25.Blackstenius.
Subs: 5.Beattie, 8.Nobbs, 11.Miedema, 16.Maritz, 18.Mackerse, 23.Iwabuchi, 59.Agyemang, 62.Reid.
Strong team and bench! Hope we get another win.
Has there been any clarification on Viv’s wrist injury?
…and does anyone know why Matt Beard never picks Carla Humphrey?
