Arsenal make eight changes from Wednesday night’s 6-0 win over Reading with only Katie McCabe, Victoria Pelova and Caitlin Foord retaining their places in the starting line-up.
That means Manu Zinsberger starts in goal with a back four of Emily Fox, Amanda Ilestedt, Lotte Wubben-Moy and Katie McCabe and a midfield double pivot of Victoria Pelova and Lia Walti.
Ahead of them, Beth Mead and Caitlin Foord are in the wide positions with Miedema behind Russo upfront. Kim Little and Leah Williamson are on the bench. Such is the strength of the Arsenal squad that there is no place in the match day squad for Jen Beattie today. Katie McCabe captains the side with usual captain Kim Little on the bench.
1.Zinsberger; 2.Fox, 28.Ilestedt, 3.Wubben-Moy, 15.McCabe(c); 21.Pelova, 13.Walti; 9.Mead, 11.Miedema, 19.Foord; 23.Russo.
