Norwich City Women are back at The Nest for only the third time this season as they host Ashford Town Women on Sunday, November 5 (KO 2pm).
With the first defeat for the Canaries all season against London Bees in the League Cup, Norwich will be hoping to bounce back in the FAWNL Division One South East, where they remain the only unbeaten side in the league.
Their most recent league fixture saw a 2-1 win over QPR at Loftus Road, thanks to goals from Megan Todd and Ellie Smith.
The Opposition
Ashford Town's 2023/24 campaign has started well, with four wins, two draws and just two losses.
Last season saw the Tangerines be one of the first women’s teams to play at Carrow Road in the league for some years, as the Canaries battled it out for a 5-3 win over Ashford.
Adam Frailing’s squad are the only Division One South East side to take points from league-leaders AFC Wimbledon, where they scored twice away from home.
Alissa Down is the club’s top-scorer, with six goals to her name this season; just one goal behind City's top-scorers Megan Todd and Natasha Snelling.
With a total of 17 league goals this season, Ashford currently sit in fifth place, three points behind Norwich. A win for the Canaries could close the gap on AFC Wimbledon at the top.
Head-to-head
These two sides have had just two recorded meetings, with one win for Norwich and one 0-0 draw.
