Speaking ahead of the match, Nottingham Forest Chairman Nicholas Randall KC said: It’s a great opportunity for our Women’s team to play a significant fixture at The City Ground and we’re all excited by the prospect.

“We saw last season how much appetite there is for women’s football in our community, and we were extremely proud to break the league’s attendance record as well as host Women’s Super League side Manchester City in the FA Cup.

“Andy Cook and his staff work incredibly hard and have started the season in great form so it would be fantastic to see as many supporters in attendance as possible.”

Forest Women Head Coach, Andy Cook, says he and his team are excited to have an opportunity to return to action on Trentside after the amount of support shown for his team last season.

“We’re really excited to be coming back to The City Ground, especially for a game of this magnitude against our biggest rivals,” said Cook.

“The support has been fantastic for the team since I’ve been here and to break the record last season for the highest ever attendance in our division was superb and it would be special to improve on that even further.

“We saw how much the nation got behind the Lionesses at the Euros this summer and it was a great advert for women’s football. We’d love to see as many supporters at The City Ground as possible because it really does make the difference and all the players really do appreciate all the support you give them.”

“We’ve started the season really strongly and we’re looking to build on that, so to have a massive league game at The City Ground to look forward to gives us even more motivation to keep striving forward and improving.”
