Everton Women host Aston Villa Women at Goodison Park this Sunday in a Barclays Women's Super League fixture. The match kicks off at 2pm BST, with tickets priced at £12 for adults and £6 for under-18s.
Scott Phelan's side will look to build on their midweek 2-0 victory over Newcastle United, a result that maintained their 100% home record this campaign. Everton currently sit seventh in the standings with nine points from six games, having won three and lost three. Their recent form has been mixed, with three wins and two defeats in their last five outings. The team has scored 8 goals and conceded 10 across the season so far.
Matchday details and fan experience
Goodison Park's Park End ticket office will open 90 minutes before kick-off on Sunday. Supporters can also purchase tickets online, over the phone, or in person at the Hill Dickinson Stadium's South Stand Ticket Office in advance. The club has organised a range of matchday activities, including live music in the Park End and Gwladys Street concourses and free face painting for younger fans.
A Buggy Park for families will be available, opening one hour before the match and closing one hour after the final whistle. Forever Blue Rewards Members can also enter prize draws by attending multiple home games, with rewards including signed shirts and VIP experiences.
The opposition and recent history
Aston Villa arrive on Merseyside in 10th place, having won just one of their opening six WSL matches. They have accumulated 4 points from those six games. However, they have won their last two games in all competitions, including a victory over Liverpool. Former Everton manager Brian Sorensen returns to Goodison as Villa's interim head coach.
Last season's meetings were tightly contested. Everton needed a 94th-minute equaliser from Kelly Gago to secure a 3-3 draw in Birmingham, before coming from behind to win 2-1 at Goodison in February with a Martina Fernandez double.
Manager Scott Phelan has spoken about the advantage of playing at the historic ground. "We are definitely proud to have Goodison as an arena to play football in," Phelan said. "Maybe that adds a little more motivation for players."
Everton's next fixture after Sunday is a trip to face Manchester United on November 1st. Fans can view the full fixtures list on the club's website.
