Liverpool boss Matt Beard has confirmed that Leanne Kiernan and Niamh Fahey are both in contention to feature against Aston Villa this weekend.
The duo have spent an extended spell on the sidelines, with Kiernan having been out of action since she sustained a serious ankle injury in the Reds' opening day victory against Chelsea. Both players returned to the matchday squad against Manchester City last time out, although they remained unused substitutes as Liverpool sealed their Women's Super League survival with a 2-1 win over Gareth Taylor's side.
However, Beard believes the prolonged break that followed that victory at Prenton Park has allowed the pair to get back up to speed, with both players poised to play their part in this weekend's clash with Aston Villa.
