Brian Sorensen outlines Everton 'opportunity' ahead of Manchester City clash

Everton boss Brian Sorensen believes his side have the opportunity to get a big result when they take on Manchester City on Saturday afternoon.

The postponement of Everton's last fixture against Tottenham and the subsequent international break means it's been almost three weeks since the Blues were last in Women's Super League action against Manchester United. The Toffees slipped to seventh in the table following their 3-0 defeat to Marc Skinner's side, and they'll be looking to bounce back when they welcome Manchester City to Walton Hall Park this weekend.

City, who currently sit fourth in the table, have won all 12 of their previous Barclays WSL meetings against Everton; the best 100% record one team has against another in the competition's history. While Gareth Taylor will be hoping to extend that record in Saturday's clash, Sorensen thinks his side can learn from the United defeat and go toe-to-toe with City in front of a sell-out home crowd.
