Manchester United will be aiming to continue their push for European qualification when they travel to the Select Car Leasing Stadium to face Reading on Sunday.

The Red Devils are in good form after going six matches unbeaten in all competitions, however, opponents Reading are improving as the season goes on and have been particularly effective late on in matches.

Reading manager Kelly Chambers will celebrate her 150th league match in charge of The Royals on Sunday. Chambers will again be without long-term absentee Deanne Rose but the Reading boss is hoping that both Rachel Rowe and Tia Primmer will be fit to feature after the pair missed last weekend’s 3-2 defeat at Everton. Lily Woodham is also expected to be part of the squad this weekend.

Manchester United head coach Marc Skinner has no new injury concerns to contend with. Attacker Leah Galton continues to struggle to fight off a minor injury and she will face a late fitness test ahead of this weekend’s fixture at the Select Car Leasing Stadium.

The Barclays Women’s Super League fixture between Reading and Manchester United is scheduled to kick-off at 2pm on Sunday afternoon. Tickets remain on-sale and can be purchased by clicking here.
