THE PREDICTION

The WSL’s bottom two clubs collide in the West Midlands as 12th-placed Birmingham host 11th-placed Leicester. Both these sides have struggled all season long, each losing 11 of their 14 WSL fixtures played, but the two will each see this as a huge opportunity to gain a priceless three points. Most worrying for Birmingham and Leicester will be how defensively fragile they have been throughout the season so far with Birmingham shipping a mammoth 34 goals and Leicester 26. However, with the need for victory so important here, neither can afford to over-rely on their respective backlines and must push bodies forward in an attempt to win. It would therefore, be no surprise if we saw plenty of goalmouth action between the two and backing over 2.5 goals scored looks a smart play.
