Exeter City Women start their home league campaign on Sunday afternoon as they welcome Lewes to Coach Road in a 2pm kick-off.
After a 2-0 opening day win at Cheltenham last weekend, followed by a 3-0 win at Portishead in the League Cup on Thursday, Abbie Britton's side have started their season off to a flyer and will be looking to make it a hat-trick of wins when the Rooks make the trip to Devon.
They too have had a good start to the season, drawing 0-0 with well fancied Watford before beating Fulham in the cup in midweek.
The Grecians won both contests against the Sussex outfit last season, recording a 4-0 win at the Dripping Pan and 1-0 win in Newton Abbot.

Supporter Travel
COACH: The Exeter City Women Supporters Club are offering coach travel to all matches at Coach Road this season, starting on Sunday. Departing from St James Park car park at 11am for 2pm kick-offs, the cost is just £10 per person.
The route will follow the inner bypass through St Thomas and Alphington, with stops accommodated along the way. To book your spot, contact dilee42@btinternet.com and let her know your require stop.
MAKE YOUR OWN WAY: You can access the stadium via car, but please note there is only a small car park on site. You can also get here by public transport! The Number 2 Bus from Exeter to Newton Abbot terminates at Newton Abbot Bus Station (19 minutes walk). Or, you can get the train to Newton Abbot station (11 minute walk).
The Opposition
Like ourselves, Lewes are a proud supporter and community owned football club and in 2017 became the first club in the world to pay their men's and women's player equally. In July the club announced Emma Byrne as their manager. The former Ireland and Arsenal goalkeeper is a nine time WSL winner, nine time FA Cup winner and a one time Champions League winner and took over from Natalie Lawrence. She is unbeaten in her first two matches in charge.
The Rooks have a host of former WSL and Championship names amongst their ranks including Hannah Godfrey (Spurs, Charlton), Chelsea Ferguson (Brighton, Blackburn) and Lois Roche (Reading, Charlton).
Match Day Programme
A six-page programme featuring match information, manager's notes, opposition guide, player sponsors and fixtures is available on Sunday for just £1! You can pick one up at the admission gate or from the PA announcer at Coach Road.
