FA WNL Northern Premier leaders Burnley Women face a challenge on the road at Rugby Borough, while Division One South West’s top two, Swindon Town and Moneyfields, go head-to-head.

Third-placed Rugby Borough have a chance to catch Northern Premier leaders Burnley, whom they host and trail by three points. Wolves travel to Derby seeking a positive result that could send them to the top of the table.

Lewes host Oxford United, Hashtag United travel to AFC Wimbledon and Cheltenham Town welcome Billericay as the trio look for wins that would put them level on points in the Southern Premier with fourth-placed Real Bedford.

Leafield and Boldmere clash looking to cut the four-point advantage of Division One Midlands leaders Peterborough United, while Barnsley Women in fourth take on Northampton Town.

Cheadle sit at the top of Division One North ahead of their clash with Durham Cestria, while Wythenshawe are just behind on goal difference as they host a Huddersfield side three points further back.

Division One South East’s top team Fulham go head-to-head with third-placed London Bees, while the Cottagers’ closest title rivals Norwich City are at Cambridge United.

There’s a top-of-the-table clash in Division One South West, with Swindon Town boasting a perfect record but visitors Moneyfields holding a single-point lead after playing one extra game.
