OH Leuven v Arsenal Women team news: Two changes for the Gunners

Taylor Hinds and Olivia Smith come into the side that beat Everton 3-1




Arsenal Women head coach Renee Slegers has made two changes from Saturday’s 3-1 win against Everton as the Gunners complete their Champions League league phase fixtures away to OH Leuven.

Slegers’ side can still finish in the top four of the table, providing they win and other results go their way, but are already guaranteed a spot at minimum in February’s play-off round.

Taylor Hinds starts at right-back as Emily Fox drops to the bench, with Olivia Smith replacing Caitlin Foord on the right wing. Smith scored from the bench away to Everton in the closing stages.

Frida Maanum is not fit enough to make the squad after missing the win over Everton with a knock. Victoria Pelova misses out with illness, and Jenna Nighswonger remains sidelined with a slight foot injury.

Arsenal: Borbe; McCabe, Catley, Wubben-Moy, Hinds; Little, Cooney-Cross; Mead, Caldentey, Smith; Russo.

Subs: Liddiard, Fox, Williamson, Codina, Harwood, Maanum, Foord, Blackstenius.
