Liverpool vs. Brighton: Team News & Possible Lineups
Liverpool vs. Brighton & Hove Albion Women Lineups are derived from previous match days. We take into consideration how strong the opponents are, what players are injured and of course team news before the match.
Team News Liverpool
Mia Enderby has returned to training after being stretchered off in the defeat at Tottenham Hotspur last weekend, while Leanne Kiernan looks set to be available.
However, Gemma Bonner has been ruled out of the meeting with Brighton after a clash of heads in training this week, and Alejandra Bernabe is also still sidelined.
On Mia Enderby: “I think it was more a precaution, it probably looked a lot worse than actually what it was, but with those types, when there’s a head or neck injury involved, it’s really important to make sure that we go through the necessary processes and checks. But Mia is fine, she’s back in with us so that’s a bonus.
What the coach has to say
Gareth Taylor on facing Brighton & Hove Albion: “Brighton are a good team, there’s no doubt about that. Of course, like us they have suffered a big blow recently with an ACL injury to Michelle Agyemang, but they are a dangerous team who I think are a match for anyone on their day.
“Our aim is to try to make our home a fortress, but our main priority at this moment in time is to get some points on the board before the Christmas break.”
Team News Brighton & Hove Albion
Dario Vidosic confirmed that Manuela Vanegas and Madison Hayley are close to returning to the squad.
“Madi (Haley) has trained a couple of times and seems okay, we are still trying to look after Manu (Vanegas) in her recovery. Both are training well, hopefully they will be involved on the weekend against Liverpool.”
What the coach has to say
The head coach on the opposition, “Liverpool are improving, they are unlucky to have zero points. It would be a big mistake if we only looked at the league table. It will be a really good game that I am looking forward to, we had a good battle last year.
“We have assessed Liverpool and know what we are preparing for on the weekend, it will be a tough game. The team want to get back to winning ways.”
