PREVIEW | Dulwich Hamlet vs AFC Sudbury | FAWNL

The Hamlet women return to Champion Hill on Sunday afternoon as we return to AFC Sudbury in the FAWNL. 

The Hamlet suffered FA Cup heartbreak last weekend as they exited the 24/25 FA Cup following a penalty shoot out defeat to former Championship side Lewes. 

Phoebe Leitch fired the Hamlet ahead in the 2nd half with a beautiful long range shot before Lewes would level 10 minutes from time. Dulwich would suffer defeat on penalties and crash out of the 24/25 Adobe Women's FA Cup. 

Before that the Hamlet secured a point at 'Loftus Road' following a 0-0 draw with Queens Park Rangers. The last time the Hamlet played at the Hill in the FAWNL they ended Actonians unbeaten start to the season with a comfortable 2-0 win. 

AFC Sudbury travel down to London just a point behind Dulwich with a game in hand. AFC Sudbury defeated Bowers & Pitsea in the FA Cup last weekend and set up an away trip to Step 3 side Lewes for a place in the 3rd round. In their last league outing the defeated Ashford Town (Middlesex) 5-4 with the score just 1-1 at half time. 

This is the first run of league fixtures the Hamlet have had since the beginning of the season where they had 4 Sundays in a row of league action. After this Sunday we head to Real Bedford before hosting Chesham United on the 24th of November. 

It's our Remembrance Day fixture which means will be holding a period of silence prior to kick-off. Captains of both sides will lay a wreath at the edge of the centre circle before the Last Post will be played on the tannoy marking the start of the period of silence.
