Big venues for the FA Women’s National League with matches at Exeter City, Middlesbrough, QPR, Stockport County and West Bromwich Albion.

West Brom welcome third-placed Burnley to The Hawthorns, while Northern Premier leaders Newcastle United go to Stourbridge and third-placed Nottingham Forest visit Wolves.

Portsmouth lead the Southern Premier by nine points and host an Ipswich Town side over whom they have had two narrow away wins this term. Second-placed Hashtag United are home to Oxford United in fifth.

Loughborough Lightning lead Division 1 Midlands on goal-difference from Boldmere before the title rivals host Leafield Athletic and visit Leek Town respectively. Fifth faces third as Northampton Town receive a visit from Sporting Khalsa.

Middlesbrough are top of Division 1 North ahead of hosting Doncaster Rovers Belles at the Riverside Stadium. Durham Cestria are a point behind and home to York City, Hull City perhaps best placed but with a tricky trip to Leeds United. Barnsley WFC remain in contention and go under new management to Norton, while Stockport play FC United at Edgeley Park.

AFC Wimbledon are six points clear in Division 1 South East and away to London Seaward, Norwich City are second and have two games in hand but face a Worthing side just beneath them. QPR’s match with Cambridge United is being held at Loftus Road.

Division 1 South West leaders Exeter City meet Maidenhead United at St James Park, AFC Bournemouth -who have games in hand with which to catch the similarly unbeaten Grecians – have home advantage over Abingdon United.
