Team news: Williamson returns to starting XI

Leah Williamson has returned to the starting XI as we take on Manchester United at Leigh Sports Village.

Our centre-back is the single change to the team that beat West Ham United 2-0 before the international break, with Laia Codina dropping to the bench.

Elsewhere, Alessia Russo starts against her former club and leads the line alongside Mariona Caldentey and Caitlin Foord.

Daphne van Domselaar keeps her place between the sticks and Steph Catley pairs up with Williamson at the back.
