Peterborough United Women will look to make it 15 unbeaten in the FA Women’s National League Midlands when they travel to Leafield Athletic on Sunday (3pm).
Peterborough United Women’s February schedule brings what was meant to be a second trip to the West Midlands for Jake Poole’s side, who travel to the Castle Vale Stadium to face Leafield on MD15.
Only ourselves and Boldmere St Michaels have picked up more points than Sunday’s opponents at home this season, who also continued their 100% league record in 2026 with a 4-0 win away at Stourbridge on Wednesday night.
But that’s not to take away from our own form, as an assured 3-0 win over Northampton Town made it 11 straight home wins in all competitions and stretched our unbeaten run in the FAWNL Midlands to 14 games, with 13 wins in that time.
Kira Rai and Hayley James were on target when we defeated Sunday’s opponents on Remembrance Sunday to send us clear at the top, where we still sit. But since then, Tash Tezgel’s team have kept up the chase, with only seven points separating the two positions.
TEAM NEWS
Kira Rai took a knock in the defeat of Northampton, but is expected to travel on Sunday. Niamh Reynolds also featured on Wednesday, so there are no concerns on her part. Otherwise, there are only a couple of concerns that will be assessed closer to the time.
MANAGER QUOTES
"They’re one of the better teams in the league, certainly, with some good individuals and a good team cohesion that they have shown over the past two years as they have grown as a team and as a club. I have a lot of respect for them, and they will pose as one of the toughest challenges we face this season," Jake Poole said.
