Previous meeting

We hosted the Foxes in the FA Cup in February and recorded a 3-1 victory to send us into the quarter-finals stage.

Leila Ouahabi sent us ahead in the first 20 minutes, as she tapped home past Janina Leitzig to score her second goal for the Citizens.

Kerolin Nicoli proved a threat to the Leicester defence, and it wasn’t long until she doubled our lead as she netted her first goal in City blue.

City continued to cause problems, before half-time substitute Khadija ‘Bunny’ Shaw extended our lead to three after being on the pitch for just 15 minutes.

Despite a flurry of City chances, Leicester added to the scoresheet with an 82nd minute goal from Foxes’ youngster Nelly Las, but it could only act as a consolation.

Our last WSL meeting against the East Midlands side in December saw a 4-0 victory as we extended our home run to nine straight wins at the Joie Stadium.

‘Bunny’ Shaw headed home inside two minutes to record a perfect start for the Citizens, before firing home a second inside 30 minutes.

Jess Park and Mary Fowler added second-half strikes as we recorded a convincing victory in front of the City faithful.
