Preview: Durham (A).

Bristol City make the trip to the North East this Easter weekend as they take on Durham Sunday, April 5th (12pm) at Maiden Castle.

City come into the fixture off the back of a narrow 1-0 home defeat against, now league leaders Birmingham City.

Despite the defeat, City boss Charlotte Healy was pleased with what she saw from her side in a contest that could've gone either way.

Healy will be looking to do the double over Sunday's hosts having already beaten Durham 2-1 earlier this season back in October at Ashton Gate.

OUR OPPONENTS: DURHAM

Durham WFC were formed in 2014 as a merger between South Durham & Cestria Girls and Durham University, competing in their first ever Women’s Super League season during 2014.

The Wildcats competed in their first WSL2 campaign during 2014 a season in which saw them finish 6th.

At the 2017 FA Women’s Football Awards, Durham were awarded the prestigious FA Women’s Super League 2 Club of the Year prize for their progress as a club.

Since then, Durham have regularly finished in the top four of the second tier and recorded their highest-ever finish in the 2020/21 campaign – when they secured second place.

The club took the latest step in their journey ahead of the 2022/23 season, as they turned fully-professional for the first time.
