Travel Information: Easy Peasy
Getting to Brisbane Road is a breeze for Tottenham fans. The stadium is a short ten-minute walk from Leyton Underground Station, accessible via the Central Line. Plan your journey and arrive early to soak up the pre-match atmosphere!
West Ham's Strategy: Stability is Key
West Ham manager Rehanne Skinner is focusing on consistency and stability this season. After a strong finish last campaign, they're looking to build on that momentum. Keep an eye on Shekiera Martinez, who was instrumental in their success, scoring 10 goals in 12 appearances last season. The Hammers have retained most of their key players, adding some fresh faces like Yu Endo and Ffion Morgan to bolster the squad. The team will hope to perform as well as they did last season when Viviane Asseyi helped them to a 2-0 victory over Tottenham.
New Era for Spurs
Martin Ho is eager to secure his first WSL victory as Tottenham Women's head coach. Following Robert Vilahamn's departure, Ho has strengthened the squad with the arrival of Japan international Toko Koga. Key players like Molly Bartrip and Luana Buhler have also extended their contracts, providing a much-needed boost. With two wins in their last three pre-season matches, including a 4-3 victory over Arsenal, Ho will be aiming for a strong start to the WSL season.
