Norwich City Women Face Fulham in a Title 'Six-Pointer'

Norwich City Women face Fulham, as the FA Women’s National League Division One South East title rivals go head-to-head.

There are only a limited number of tickets remaining for the massive match at The Nest, where Norwich start two points ahead of the Cottagers but have played a game more.

Fulham have this week made two new additions, with Scotland U-19 international forward Leila Lister joining from Butler University in the US and former Spurs, Crystal Palace, and Oxford United defender Hannah Mackenzie arriving from AFC Wimbledon.

Still in the same division, there’s a basement battle between AFC Sudbury and a Chesham side still looking for their first win, trailing their hosts by five points.

West Brom and AFC Bournemouth try again to play their League Cup tie, as Plymouth Argyle await the winners in the final at Loftus Road.

Second-placed Wolves play Rugby, who are third in the Northern Premier, while basement side Sporting Khalsa host Halifax, who are just the other side of the relegation zone.

Watford are at home to fourth-in-the-table Oxford United but could surrender the Southern Premier leadership to Plymouth if they fail to win.

Two of the Division One North title chasers clash as Cheadle take on Leeds, while Doncaster bid to escape the drop zone when traveling to a winless Blackburn.

Division One Midlands leaders Boldmere can’t afford to drop points at home to Northampton, with title favourites Peterborough ready to pounce and hosting Sutton Coldfield.

Division One South West top team Moneyfields meet Portishead, while Swindon go to Ascot looking to return to winning ways after dropping their first points.
