TEAM NEWS
Reds boss Skinner is hoping Rachel Williams, Gabby George and Fridolina Rolfo will all return to action soon.
However, it seems certain that we will be without the services of Simi Awujo and Leah Galton for the flight to Scandinavia.
No fresh knocks appeared to be picked up in the victory over Leicester City.
WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT BRANN?Brann play their football in the Toppserien, the highest division of women’s football in Norway.
Last season, they finished second behind Valerenga, and therefore yielded qualification to the second stage of the UEFA Women’s Champions League process.
So far, Leif Gunnar Smerud’s side have beaten Inter and Braga to reach this juncture, proving their capabilities.
They reached the group stages of the competition last year and even progressed further, by finishing in second place to Lyon.
Barcelona ended their run in the knockout stages.
