City are next to bottom after last Saturday’s 1-0 defeat at home to Nottingham University when they were denied a second half equaliser by the crossbar. Sheffield are currently bottom of the table.

City of Peterborough Ladies returned to form with a 4-2 home win over Cambridge University last weekend. Claire Caruth (2), Holly Finding and Holly Naismith scored the goals for fifth-placed City who are at Old Loughtonians this Saturday.
