Team News: Jo Potter Names Side To Face Celtic

JO POTTER has named her Rangers side for this afternoon’s ScottishPower Women’s Premier League match against Celtic at Excelsior Stadium.

It is the head coach’s first taste of the Old Firm derby in a league fixture since joining the club this summer, and she makes two changes to the team that ran out convincing 7-0 winners over Hibs at Ibrox last weekend.

Mia McAulay comes into the team after putting pen to paper on a new deal earlier today in place of Jodi McLeary and Megan Bell replaces Rachel Rowe in the number 10 position.

The line-up in full sees Jenna Fife start between the posts for the Gers, behind a back three of Rachel McLauchlan, Kathryn Hill and captain Nicola Docherty.

McAulay and Brogan Hay will start on the wings, with Chelsea Cornet and Kirsty Maclean operating as a midfield pairing. Bell comes into the team in a more advanced role in support of the front two.

Kirsty Howat and Rio Hardy will once again start as a front pairing as they look to continue their fine goal scoring form as a duo of late.

On the substitutes bench for Rangers this afternoon is Victoria Esson, Libby Bance, Eilidh Austin, Michelle Colson, Lizzie Arnot, Tessel Middag, Sarah Ewens, Laura Berry and Jodi McLeary.

Kick-off in Airdrie is at 12pm and you can watch the game live on Sky Sports.

RANGERS: Fife, McLauchlan, Hill, Docherty, McAulay, Cornet, Maclean, Hay, Bell, Hardy, Howat
