WSL Match Preview | Man United Women vs Aston Villa

CURRENT FORM

The unbeaten Reds go into this weekend fourth in the WSL table, having won three and drawn two of our five matches so far.

Skinner’s gap is two points behind third-placed Brighton and five points behind leaders Manchester City, both of whom have played a game more than us.

Last time out, Malard’s late equalizer earned a point against Arsenal on a day full of milestones for the Reds. Millie Turner made her 150th club appearance, Skinner played his 100th match and there was a club record crowd of 8,348 for a United Women match at Leigh Sports Village.

In the meantime, our opponents are still looking for a first competition victory under manager Robert de Pauw. Their only two points came in the home games against Tottenham Hotspur and Leicester City.

The Villans have lost all three of their away games in the competition, including a narrow 2-1 defeat to number one City in their final outing before the international break, which included a first WSL goal for Gabi Nunes.

De Pauw’s tenth-placed side are one of three teams still winless, along with West Ham United and Everton.
