Team news: Five changes for League Cup semi-final

Renée Slegers has made five changes to the starting line-up for tonight’s Subway Women’s League Cup semi-final at home to Manchester United.
Following Sunday’s 2-0 win over Aston Villa in the fourth round of the Adobe Women’s FA Cup, Taylor Hinds, Laia Codina, Victoria Pelova, Frida Maanum and Caitlin Foord all come into the side.
They replace Emily Fox, Steph Catley, Kim Little, Beth Mead and Stina Blackstenius.
Anneke Borbe remains in goal but Daphne van Domselaar has returned to the squad on the bench. The other defenders keeping their place are Lotte Wubben-Moy and Katie McCabe.
Mariona Caldentey is in midfield again alongside Pelova, while Maanum’s start could push Alessia Russo further forward, with Olivia Smith and Foord on the wings.
Kick-off is at 7pm at Mangata Developments Stadium in Borehamwood.
