The question this step asks
Step two is HOME AND AWAY FORM -- the home side judged on its home record, the away side on its away record, because those are the records that will be on the pitch. The last five reach back into last season where this season is too young to answer, and say so.
The two sides
Sunderland Women -- at home
Its record at the relevant venue
No home game yet this season. Last season at home: won 3, drew 4, lost 4 of 11, scoring 15 and conceding 18 -- 1.18 points a game.
Its last five league matches
Newest first: lost to Ipswich Town W 1-2 away; lost to Crystal Palace Ladies 1-2 at home; lost to Birmingham City Women 0-1 away; drew with Newcastle United W 1-1 at home; beat Portsmouth Ladies 1-0 away. The last 5 of these are from last season.
The dugout
Every one of the 1 banked matches with a manager recorded was taken by Melanie Copeland. Who picks the team today is not yet recorded this season, so a summer change of manager would not show in these figures.
Bristol City Women -- away
Its record at the relevant venue
No away game yet this season. Last season away: won 4, drew 4, lost 3 of 11, scoring 22 and conceding 20 -- 1.45 points a game.
Its last five league matches
Newest first: beat Sheffield United Ladies 4-0 away; beat Newcastle United W 2-1 at home; drew with Durham Women 2-2 away; lost to Birmingham City Women 0-1 at home; beat Charlton Athletic Ladies 2-1 at home. The last 5 of these are from last season.
The dugout
Our feed records no manager against any of its banked matches, so the dugout cannot be read.
