On Thursday evening, it’s FA Women’s National League Division One Midlands action as City make the short trip to Droitwich to face off against fierce rivals Kidderminster Harriers. Worcester will be looking to bounce back following two disappointing results against Boldmere St Michaels and Leafield, respectively, and what better game to do so than against their Worcestershire counterparts.
Last time out
City travelled to the Castle Vale Stadium to take on 3rd placed Leafield, and despite coming from behind twice, City ended up on the wrong end of a 7-2 defeat.
Thursday’s hosts, Kidderminster Harriers, however, claimed the three points away from home against Notts County following a 2-1 win.
