Liverpool are set to take on Reading in the Women's Super League this weekend and manager Matt Beard believes his side have learnt some valuable lessons from their last encounter with the Royals.
Katie Stengel gave the visitors an early lead during November's meeting in the South East before goals from Tia Primmer and striker Natasha Dowie - who returned to Liverpool in the January window - put Reading in front. Stengel swiftly levelled things up and Rhiannon Roberts restored the Reds' advantage before a late header from Sanne Troelsgaard Nielsen saw the spoils shared at the Select Car Leasing Stadium.
But the Liverpool boss is hopeful his side will come out on top when the two teams meet again at Prenton Park on Sunday, with only a point separating the two sides ahead of the clash. Kelly Chambers side will travel to Merseyside looking to bounce back from their narrow defeat to Manchester United last time out, while the Reds will hope to deliver the kind of performance that saw them triumph over West Ham in their last home game back in December.
