Claire Emslie is expected to wear the captain’s armband again the absence of Rachel Corsie, while forward Caroline Weir will be vice captain on her 97th cap, a role the forward said was “an honour” in the lead up to the game.
Teenage Rangers star Emma Watson could earn her second cap after impressing on her debut against Australia, while Glasgow City’s Lauren Davidson and London City Lionesses’s Jamie-Lee Napier are pushing for starts after impressing as substitutes.
