LEWES V CHARLTON | CONTINENTAL CUP
Karen Hills’ Addicks will look to make it three wins on the bounce as they open their Continental Cup account away to Lewes this Sunday (KO 2 pm GMT).
Charlton will travel to the Dripping Pan off the back of a five-goal thriller against Sunderland last weekend. A stoppage-time header from Elisha N’Dow meant that the Addicks defeated the ten women Sunderland side at the Eppleton Colliery Welfare Ground.
Victory against Lewes will see the Addicks go to the top of Group D depending on the result between Bristol City and Charlton’s capital city rivals Crystal Palace who locks horns on Sunday.
The Addicks came out victorious in the previous meeting between the two sides, Elise Hughes tapped in from close range to make it 1-0 Charlton before the half-time interval.
Lewes boss Scott Booth will be looking to retrieve his first victory of the season, Lewes currently sits eighth in the Women’s Championship with four draws from four outings. The Rooks were held to a draw last weekend as they hosted Sheffield United in a 2-2 clash.
Two first-half strikes from Dalton and Stobbs weren’t enough for the Rooks as Sheffield United closed the two-goal deficit in the second half thanks to an own goal from Lewes centre-back Ellie Mason and a 68th-minute equaliser from Charlotte Newsham.
Charlton will be sporting their third kit at the Dripping Pan.
With the Charlton Athletic men's team's Sky Bet League One fixture against Portsmouth being moved for Sky Sports Coverage on Monday, October 17th, Karen Hills' Addicks will now play their Barclays Women's Championship fixture against Blackburn Rovers at The Oakwood, DA1 4DN on Sunday, October 16th KO 12 PM.
