England Women’s head coach Hope Powell has named an 18-player squad in their penultimate World Cup Qualifier against the Netherlands.
The Lionesses will face the Dutch at the Valley, home of Charlton Athletic FC, as they aim to secure a spot at the 2007 FIFA Women’s World Cup in China.
It's a big night for two members of the group in Eni Aluko and Jo Potter who both play their club football with the Addicks.
And Powell’s team enjoyed a 1-0 win over the Netherlands in the first clash in November 2015, with Fara Williams’ penalty proving enough to seal the points.
It’s been an enjoyable campaign for England so far, with wins over Hungary and Austria both home and away and a draw with France at Ewood Park in March 2015.
The Squad
Goalkeepers: Rachel Finnis-Brown (Everton), Siobhan Chamberlain (Bristol Academy)
Defenders: Katie Chapman (Arsenal), Alex Scott (Arsenal), Rachel Unitt (Everton), Mary Phillip (Arsenal), Jo Potter (Charlton Athletic), Lindsay Johnson (Everton),
Midfielders: Vicky Exley (Doncaster Rovers Belles), Fara Williams (Everton), Anita Asanta (Arsenal), Karen Carney (Arsenal), Jill Scott (Everton), Jody Handley (Everton)
Forwards: Eniola Aluko (Charlton Athletic), Rachel Yankey (Arsenal), Sue Smith (Leeds United), Kelly Smith (Arsenal)
