The Blues are back in the North-West for the third of our four consecutive games against City, hoping to bounce back from the midweek Champions League loss.

For today’s game, Bompastor has brought Ashley Lawrence and Niamh Charles into the Chelsea defence to accompany Millie Bright and Lucy Bronze.

Wieke Kaptein, Oriane Jean-Francois and Maika Hamano are fresh faces in the middle of the park, with Johanna Rytting Kaneryd joining an attack that also contains Lauren James and Aggie Beever-Jones.

Vivianne Miedema, City's midweek goalscorer, starts today, one of four changes to the hosts' team.

Chelsea: Hampton, Lawrence, Bronze, Bright (c), Charles, Jean-Francois, Kaptein, James, Hamano, Rytting Kaneryd, Beever-Jones

Substitutes: Spencer, Bjorn, Baltimore, Cuthbert, Nusken, Walsh, Macario, Fishel, Ramirez

Man City: Keating, Casparij, Prior, Aleixandri (C), Layzell, Hasegawa, Roord, Coombs, Kerolin, Park, Miedema
