Leeds United Women return to Adobe Women’s FA Cup action this afternoon, facing Yorkshire rivals Huddersfield Town Women in the second round proper.

To progress to the second round proper, Leeds defeated FC St Helens Women 5-1 at Garforth, thanks to goals from Kath Smith, Sian Gibrill-Keating, Chloe Dixon and a brace from Brittany Sanderson.

Simon Wood has named an unchanged side from the narrow defeat to tier-above West Bromwich Albion Women in the FA WNL Cup last time out, following a two week break after the York City Ladies clash was postponed.

Carrie Simpson starts between the sticks, with a back four of Izzy Elliott, Shauna Legge with the armband, Emily Cassidy and Darcie Greene ahead of the stopper.

The midfield trio of Alice Hughes, Ellie White and Kath Smith remains ever-present, as does the attacking line of Drew Greene, Sian Gibrill-Keating and Chloe Dixon.

Charlotte Oates is joined on the bench by former Terrier Macy Ellis, Ruby Waldron and a place for Ava Spencer-Smith, who steps up from the Under-23s.

Starting XI: Simpson (GK), Elliott, Legge (C), Cassidy, Darcie Greene, Hughes, White, Smith, Drew Greene. Gibrill-Keating, Dixon.

Subs: Oates (GK), Ellis, Waldron, Spencer-Smith.

Huddersfield: Davies (GK), Stanfield (C), Mallin, Lord-Mears, Beresford, Housley, Biggins, Gindra, Firth, Burgess.
