Team’s Up – Taylor Otto starts, new signing Kit Loferski makes the bench

Fran Alonso has named his Celtic FC Women side to take on theRangers at Broadwood Stadium in Cumbernauld in what is a must-win match for both sides who are chasing current SWPL1 leaders Glasgow City.

The Celtic team this evening is as follows: Tajonar, Kerner, Hayes, Clark, O’Riordan, Menglu, Otto, Chance, Gallacher, Jacynta and Flint.

This will be a 3-4-3 with the back three being Hayes, Clark and O’Riordan, the wingbacks Kerner and Menglu, the central midfielders Otto and Chance and the front three Gallacher, Jacynta and Flint.

On the bench for Celtic FC Women are Logan, Ross, Craig, Shen, birthday Ghirl Fergusson, today’s new signing Loferski, Bowie, Goldie and Barclay.

Kick-off is at 7.30pm and the match is live on Sky Sports, the first time ever that an SWPL1 match has been broadcast live by Sky and the build-up has just started on Sky. It’s an adventurous, attacking line-up, it looks like Celtic are going to go for it, so COYGIG!
