Lucy Staniforth loses the ball in the middle of the park and Deanne Rose gets on a run but is pushed out to the right by Danielle Turner.

She threads through for the onrushing Sam Tierney but the effort is snuffed out.

Staniforth then goes into the book for a foul on Yuka Momiki.

Kerstin Casparij looks to get behind the Liverpool defence, but Taylor Hinds lunges in with a well-timed tackle.

Liverpool's back line isn't letting up.

West Ham launch a free kick into the box from midway through the Everton half.

Riko Ueki rises highest in the middle to meet it but can only direct her header straight at Courtney Brosnan.

Aston Villa have a free-kick just past the half-way line and Kenza Dali whips it into a good area but Anna Patten can't quite connect with the ball.

It was a glorious opportunity and she puts her head in her hands as the ball goes behind for a goal kick.

It has to be said that on the balance of the game Brian Sorensen's side more than deserved that equaliser.

The goal came in somewhat fortunate circumstances, indeed it has now gone down as an own goal by Camila Saez, but the Blues won't care one bit.

After four games their goalscoring account for the season is open, can they now find another to take all three points?

You can hear members of the crowd shout "that's it" as Liverpool win the ball back off Man City.

They have been defensively solid and Manchester City haven't been able to create too much.

Manchester City have had over 76% possession. They're dominating the ball, but Liverpool are happy to let them do so.

Apart from Lauren Hemp's earlier chance, they haven't done much in the final third.

Brighton flash the ball across the face of goal but Josie Green beats Michelle Agyemang to it and clears.

Guro Bergsvand has the ball in the back of the net on the resulting corner but it won't count as there's a foul on Palace keeper Shae Yanez.

Abbie Larkin replaces Indiah-Paige Riley for the home side. They have done everything but find the back of the net this half.

Leicester make another change as they look to find the opening. On comes Janice Cayman for Missy Goodwin.

So close from Lauren Hemp for Manchester City!

She runs down the right, plays a lovely one-two with Khadija Shaw, but pokes the ball with the outside of her foot and sends it just wide of the far post.

Good move from West Ham and it almost results in their second goal of the game.

Seraina Piubel and Anouk Denton combine well on the edge of the box before setting up a shot for Shelina Zadorsky.

The defender runs onto the chance and gets some force behind it but she's leaning back and lifts the ball over the bar.

Adriana Leon has looked dangerous since she came on and she drills an effort towards the roof of the net but it's a tight angle and Janina Leitzig is able to tip it over the bar.

With Matt Beard ill, it's Liverpool assistant boss Scott Rogers who is on the edge of the dugout now giving instructions to his players.

He calls over Gemma Bonner and Jenna Clark, who then have a separate discussion with Taylor Hinds.

Gareth Taylor, who started the match sat in the stands, has barely left the dugout since as he's clearly not happy with how things have started.

Olivia Smith is back on her feet, so it looks like she will be fine to continue.

Both managers have used that stoppage as a chance to address their teams.

Liverpool will feel things have gone well. Gareth Taylor will be trying to find an answer to the hosts' excellent defensive composure.

Visitors enjoying a lot of possession, but it's Liverpool who've created the best chance so far.

A simple ball over the top, exploits the high line. Olivia Smith gets in behind, good strength to hold off Leila Ouahabi, but her shot was lacking the power of accuracy, a comfortable save in the end for Ayaka Yamashita.

You get the feeling it's the type of chance you have to put away in order to take points off Manchester City,

Adriana Leon gets on a run from her own half into the Leicester half and it looks dangerous but she's forced wide by Asmita Ale.

It drops for Lucy Staniforth and she tries an ambitious shot from range and it's well wide.

Brian Sorensen makes another attacking change.

Melissa Lawley, signed from Merseyside rivals Liverpool in the summer, comes on in place of Karoline Olesen.

Olivia Smith is down and receiving treatment. She's taken a few knocks.
