Maika Hamano is handed a start and Guro Reiten is also part of the attack, and there is a change in goal with an outing for Zecira Musovic.

Nathalie Bjorn and Eve Perisset come into defence and Sophie Ingle is a change in midfield.

There is a first start at Kingsmeadow for Millie Bright since her return to fitness but Lauren James and Mayra Ramirez are again out with injuries.

Maren Mjelde and Fran Kirby are on the Kingsmeadow bench for the last time following the announcements that both players will be leaving Chelsea at the end of the season.

The Bristol City line-up has four changes from their defeat at home to Manchester City a week ago. Brooke Aspin, who is on loan from Chelsea, drops out of their defence. A former Blue, Jamie-Lee Napier, is in their midfield.
