Rehanne Skinner has named her West Ham United women's team that will start against Arsenal on Sunday afternoon.
The West Ham manager has made two changes from the side that drew 1-1 with Everton last weekend. Switzerland international Seraina Piubel is handed her first Barclays Women's Super League after impressing in recent cameos from the substitutes' bench. Piubel scored her first goal for the Hammers in their last home fixture, a 6-0 win over Portsmouth in the Women's League Cup.
Shannon Cooke also returns to the starting XI for the clash with Arsenal, meaning that Emma Harries and Camila Sáez drop to the bench.
All of that means that Kinga Szemik continues between the sticks for the Hammers, having played in every WSL fixture so far this term.
Skinner appears to be continuing with the five-at-the-back formation, meaning that Anouk Denton and Li Mengwen will likely occupy the wing-back positions, with Amber Tysiak and Shelina Zadorsky joining Cooke in the middle of the defence.
Oona Siren and captain Katrina Gorry continue in the heart of the midfield for the second game in succession.
In attack, the aforementioned Piubel will hope to make an impact on her first start in the WSL as part of a three-pronged attack alongside Viviane Asseyi and Riko Ueki.
Skinner has nine options to choose from on her substitutes bench, which includes youngster Soraya Walsh for the first time this season. Megan Walsh, Kirsty Smith, Marika Bergman Lundin, Dagný Brynjarsdóttir, Manuela Paví, Halle Houssein, Harries and Sáez complete the matchday squad.
