Everton have registered a third straight home defeat for the first time since April 2019 following their 2-1 loss to Manchester City.
City came into Saturday's game having won all 12 of their Barclays WSL meetings against Everton, the best 100% record one team has against another in the competition's history. While Gareth Taylor's side travelled to Merseyside looking to extend that record and pick up a fifth consecutive WSL win, the hosts took to the field at Walton Hall Park in the hopes of avoiding a third straight home defeat, following disappointing outings against Chelsea and Manchester United.
Brian Sorensen made five changes to the side that fell to a 3-0 defeat against the Red Devils, with goalkeeper Emily Ramsey, fresh from her shootout heroics during the international break, coming in for Courtney Brosnan, and Katja Snoeijs preferred to Aggie Beever-Jones up front. The Danish manager was unable to call on the services of Jess Park, who netted her first England goal on her senior debut last week, with the 21-year-old City loanee ineligible for selection against her parent club.
