Arsenal will be hoping to continue their perfect record in this season’s Barclays Women’s Super League when West Ham United are the visitors to the LV Bet Stadium on Sunday evening.
The Gunners have won all four of their league matches so far, scoring 11 goals and keeping four consecutive clean sheets at the other end of the pitch. This weekend’s opponents West Ham United are in good form and could provide Jonas Eidevall’s side with their toughest test yet.
Arsenal go into the match without the services of centre-backs Leah Williamson and Rafaelle Souza who continue to be sidelined through injury. Youngster Teyah Goldie is making good progress as she bids to return from an Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) injury. Head coach Eidevall is likely to recall Manuela Zinsberger, Lia Wälti, Frida Maanum, Katie McCabe, Caitlin Foord and Stina Blackstenius after those players dropped to the bench for the game against FC Zürich in midweek.
West Ham United travel to Boreham Wood unbeaten in their last three matches in all competitions. The Hammers remain without the services of long term absentee Jess Ziu while Lucy Parker is not yet fit to return. Danish international midfielder Emma Snerle is carrying a knock and won’t be involved this weekend.
