Arsenal v Everton commentary and team news: Women's Super League on talkSPORT

talksport.com, 8 October 2021, 14:51
Arsenal host Everton at Meadow Park this weekend as the Gunners look to extend their lead at the top of the table in the Women's Super League.

Arsenal go into this game off the back of their Champions League loss against Barcelona but have dominated in their league games so far this season.

The Gunners won 4-0 over Aston Villa last week after securing a 5-1 victory over rivals Tottenham in the quarter-final of the FA Women's Cup.

They are going well the league but have a packed schedule to juggle and will need to continue their dominant success as Spurs are only behind them on goal difference.

Everton come into this match on the back of two wins over Birmingham and Reading following a slow start to the campaign.

The WSL match is scheduled for Sunday, October 10 with a 3pm kick-off.

Arsenal v Everton: Team News

Arsenal will be hoping to field a similar team to that which started the Champions League game against Barcelona.

Tobin Heath, Katie McCabe and Caitlin Foord are all likely to feature after appearing as substitutes in their Barca defeat.

Vivianne Miedema and Beth Mead, the club's top-scorers, will likely start once more.

Everton have been boosted by a great transfer window but are still finding their way as they sit middle of the table and Everton boss Willie Kirk has said there are a couple of new knocks he has to contend with.

He spoke to the media ahead of the game and said: "A number of players are in doubt… We've just hit a bad run with injuries.

"We've not been able to get those consistencies in that starting lineup because somebody's unavailable or somebody's picked up a knock or having to be careful with someone.

"But yeah I think at this stage because they've still got a chance to play I think it would be silly of me to name names but yeah there's a couple of new knocks."

Arsenal v Everton: What has been said?

Kirk added his praises for the depth of his squad: "If you look at the bench we had at the weekend, we were bringing people like Hanna Bennison and Valerie Gauvin off the bench.

"We've still got a very strong squad, that's the difference this year if we do pick up knocks we can more than cover for it.

Kirk also praised 18-year-old academy graduate Grace Clinton ahead of the game: "Nothing is daunting for Grace Clinton, she takes everything in her stride.

"She's doing exceptionally well.

"She's now in a place where she's competing for a first team place week in week out."
