Liverpool scored twice in three minutes to secure a crucial victory over Reading at Prenton Park and move up to eighth in the WSL table.
Matt Beard's side started the day in ninth place, just one point above Reading - albeit having played two games less than their visitors. The Royals came out on top in their previous three away meetings with Liverpool, and pegged the Reds back during the reverse fixture in November, though Kelly Chambers side had failed to pick up a single point on their travels this term ahead of their trip to Merseyside.
The Liverpool boss made two changes to the team that were narrowly beaten by Chelsea in the FA Cup last weekend, with Taylor Hinds returning to captain the side and deadline day loan signing Natasha Dowie unavailable for selection against her parent club. Meanwhile, goalkeeper Jacqueline Burns and midfielder Jade Moore were restored to the starting XI for Reading following the Royals' penalty shootout victory over Leicester last time out.
