Team news & squads
Brighton team news
Defender Jorja Fox sustained an injury during Sunday's win against West Ham and it could jeopardise her chances of participating in the upcoming match. In the first half's stoppage time, Poppy Pattinson replaced Fox back then and she may be chosen to start if the 19-year-old is not fit to play.
In contrast, following her successful stint in the previous game, Kayleigh Green is expected to maintain her spot in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game. She was instrumental in securing the victory for the team, scoring the decisive goal against West Ham. As a result, the coach is likely to keep her in the lineup for the upcoming match, hoping that she can replicate her performance and help the team secure another crucial victory in their battle to survive relegation.

Arsenal team news
Arsenal is currently experiencing a number of injury concerns that could impact their performance in the upcoming matches. Leah Williamson, Laura Wienroither, Beth Mead, and Vivianne Miedema, who are key players for the team, are all out due to ACL injuries. These injuries are quite serious and can often take a significant amount of time to recover from.
In addition to these long-term injuries, Kim Little is currently sidelined with a hamstring problem, which could keep her out of action for several weeks. Meanwhile, Caitlin Foord, who has already missed the last four matches, is also unlikely to feature in the team's upcoming games.
Steph Catley is another player who is a doubt for Arsenal after she was forced to leave the pitch within 16 minutes of being introduced as a substitute in their last game against Leicester. The full extent of her injury is yet to be determined, and the team is keeping a close eye on her condition.
