Team news: Catley and Maanum start

Frida Maanum and Steph Catley

Renee Slegers has made two changes to the lineup from midweek as we take on West Ham United in the Barclays Women’s Super League this afternoon.

Frida Maanum returns to the starting XI for the first time since our Champions League fixture against Bayern Munich last Wednesday. She replaces Beth Mead in the lineup.

Elsewhere, Steph Catley comes in for Leah Williamson at the back. Our vice-captain starts proceedings on the bench.

Our squad will be marking two milestones against the Hammers: today is Kim Little’s 350th appearance for the club and Lia Walti’s 100th WSL match.

Arsenal starting XI: van Domselaar, Fox, Codina, Catley, Mariona, Little (C), McCabe, Maanum, Walti, Foord, Russo

Subs: Zinsberger, Williamson, Reid, Cooney-Cross, Kuhl, Mead, Kafaji, Hurtig, Blackstenius
