A pause in play as Crystal Palace's goalkeeper Shae Yanez receives a bit of attention.

We're into the final 20 minutes of this relegation clash. Can Aston Villa fight their way back into the game? Thumbs up for yes. Thumbs down for no.

Off the bar! Jordan Nobbs tees the ball up to herself from well outside the box and her shot pings off the crossbar.

That's probably the closest Aston Villa have come today but it says a lot that they're resorting to long-range efforts.

Brighton are targeting the right side of Tottenham's defence with Nikita Parris pulling out there. She's linking with Poppy Pattinson well but still no chances created.

Ashleigh Weerden is having a brilliant game on the right. She holds off a defender and picks out a teammate on the edge of the box with a smart cut-back. The shot is easily saved but it's another promising move for Crystal Palace.

If I'm not mistaken, moments later Weerden was back in her own box helping out in defence. She really is everywhere today.

Better from Brighton. Nikita Parris is given the ball on the left and she feeds in a team-mate in the box but Tottenham stand firm.

Brighton have done well to grow into this game after a lively Tottenham start but the visitors need to start creating some chances.

They've got an xG of 0.

A flurry of changes for Aston Villa.

Rachel Daly, Miri Taylor, Kirsty Hanson, and Noelle Maritz are off. Gabi Nunes, Missy Bo Kearns, Jordan Nobbs and Danielle Turner come on.

There's not much quality on show here just yet, if I'm being honest with you.

Crystal Palace haven't kept a clean sheet in the WSL since 6 October (a 2-0 away win over Leicester City).

They're holding firm in defence today.

Brighton seem to have stemmed the Tottenham storm for now but are still struggling to create anything going forward.

Nikita Parris has barely had a touch so far.

Oooooh! Crystal Palace threaten a third!

Allyson Swaby connects with a header at the back post from a corner but directs the ball straight at Sabrina D'Angelo.

Molly Bartrip has put her boot back on as she trudges to the side of the pitch and play is back under way.

Surely it won't be long before we see a change for Aston Villa?

They need to do something to get back into this game.

Tottenham skipper Molly Bartrip is down and receiving treatment on her foot. Her boot is off and she isn't looking too happy.

Tottenham's free-kick is cleared only as far as Ashleigh Neville, who plays a lovely pass up the line but Brighton survive again.

Aston Villa enjoy a good spell of possession which ends in Chasity Grant delivering a dangerous ball into the box. Kirsty Hanson, under pressure from a defender, heads wide.

Maria Thorisdottir is poorly dispossessed in her own half and Tottenham have now earned themselves a free-kick as Madison Haley is given a talking to.

To say it's been all Spurs is an understatement.

Something has to change for Aston Villa and quickly.

Goal-scorer Aniek Nouwen has so much freedom to meander forward, taking the ball almost box to box. You wouldn't think Aston Villa were chasing the game given their casual approach to defending.
