Preview: Leeds United Women vs Solihull Moors Women

Preview: Leeds United Women vs Solihull Moors Women

Place action at the So-Trak Stadium.

Leeds United Women are in cup action again this week, as they host Solihull Moors in the FA Women’s National League Plate.  

The competition is for sides who were beaten in the first round of the FA Women’s National League Cup. Leeds were beaten 2-0 by York City and Sunday’s opponents were also beaten 2-0, by Northern Premier Division strugglers Loughborough Lightening. 

The Whites have turned a corner since that cup defeat and are now looking to extend their unbeaten run to five games; Rick Passmoor’s side began October with back-to-back league wins against Bradford and Chorley, before a draw at York City was followed by last week’s FA Cup success at South Shields.  

Sunday’s visitors also come into the game in good form. The Moors are unbeaten in three since their cup defeat at Loughborough and currently sit third in their league after winning four, drawing two and losing just one of their opening seven games this season.
