Man City v Chelsea: A Battle of Strategies
At the Etihad Stadium, Manchester City's boss Andree Jeglertz has named an unchanged starting XI from the team that secured a late winner against London City Lionesses.

Manchester City XI: Yamashita, Rose, Knaak, Greenwood, Casparij, Blindkilde Brown, Hasegawa, Hemp, Kerolin, Miedema, Shaw.
Subs: Keating, Clinton, Coombs, Fowler, Ouahabi, Coffey, Fujino, Beney, Prior.
On the other hand, Sonia Bompastor has made three strategic changes to the Chelsea team that fell to Arsenal last weekend. With Lucy Bronze absent due to a minor injury, Veerle Buurman steps in. Up front, Lauren James replaces Sam Kerr. Here's Chelsea's starting lineup:
Chelsea XI: Hampton, Carpenter, Bright, Buurman, Girma, Baltimore, Cuthbert, Walsh, Kaptein, Thompson, James.
Subs: Spencer, Peng, Nusken, Reiten, Rytting-Kaneryd, Kerr, Potter, Beever-Jones, Sarwie.
