Everton 'don't want to look down' in WSL table
Everton want to make sure they "don't have to look down" in the table by picking up a victory over bottom club Crystal Palace on Saturday.
Manager Brian Sorensen says that is "really important" to relieve any lingering concerns about relegation in the Women's Super League.
The Toffees currently sit eighth in the table - seven points clear of Palace.
"It is really important, we know that. It is 90 minutes of football and anything can happen," said Sorensen.
"We just need to make sure that we are sharp, ready and at our best. I am very confident that we haven't got our last three points of the season.
"We want to make sure that we don't have to look down, and win that game. Palace have the tools to [stay up] but so do the other teams around them. We will see."
Here are more key lines from Sorensen's media conference ahead of Saturday's match (14:00 GMT):
- Clare Wheeler has recovered from illness, while Melissa Lawley picked up a minor injury in training but both are expected to be available for Everton.
- However, on-loan Chelsea forward Louna Ribadeira is set to miss the rest of the season with a foot injury.
- Sorensen says Everton are preparing for a "tough" game but are "ready" to face Palace.
