Liverpool fell to their fifth straight defeat after a Rachel Daly penalty helped Aston Villa to a 1-0 victory in the Women's Super League.
The hosts took to the field at Prenton Park looking to pick up three points ahead of the upcoming international break. It's been a testing start for Matt Beard's side since their return to the top flight of the women's game, with the Reds having failed to win since their shock victory over Chelsea on the opening day of the season.
The Liverpool boss made two changes to the side that was beaten by Manchester City last weekend, with Rachel Furness deputising for injured midfielder Ceri Holland and Missy Bo Kearns replaced by Yana Daniels. Villa travelled to Merseyside in the hopes of avoiding a third consecutive league defeat, and Carla Ward named an unchanged XI from the team that lost to Chelsea last time out.
