Ipswich Town Women will be looking to get back to winning ways after back-to-back goalless draws in the league when they take on Crawley Wasps at The New Defence in Horley this afternoon (KO 2.30pm).
Despite their recent results, the Blues remain top of FA National League Southern Premier Division, five points ahead of Oxford, who have two games in hand, and nine in front of third-placed Southampton, who have played five fewer games than the Tractor Girls.
"Obviously we’re disappointed that we couldn’t pick up the three points in both games,” defender Paige Peake said reflecting on the stalemates against Gillingham and MK Dons.
"But there’s still a long way to go in this season, still nine games to go, so it’s not over yet.”
Town will be playing Crawley for the third time this season following a 1-0 win in the league and 4-0 success in the FA Cup, both at the Goldstar Ground.
"It’ll be a good, competitive battle,” Peake continued. "They’re always a strong, physical side. We dominated a bit more against them in the FA Cup, but especially the first game in the league it was a hard one.
"They obviously beat Oxford [1-0 at home] at the weekend in the League Cup, so I’m sure it’ll be a good game.”
