Team news: Two changes to face Twente

Renée Slegers has made two changes to the starting XI for our UEFA Women’s Champions League match against FC Twente.

Following Saturday’s 2-1 win against Liverpool, Katie McCabe and Victoria Pelova come in for Emily Fox and Frida Maanum.

Laia Codina and Jenna Nighswonger both miss out due to knocks.

Anneke Borbe remains in goal with Daphne van Domselaar out injured, while Taylor Hinds, Lotte Wubben-Moy and captain Steph Catley make up the rest of the defence alongside McCabe.

In midfield, Kyra Cooney-Cross sits alongside Mariona Caldentey with Pelova ahead of them.

It’s the same front three that started against Liverpool then with Beth Mead and Olivia Smith either side of Alessia Russo.
