Squad news
Slegers said: "They’re not back yet, and it’s the same as for the last game. Frida’s progressing well too, but tomorrow will come too soon. Kim Little is back in the squad."
Reid assessment
On Reid, Slegers added: "She’s, of course, coming back from a long-term injury. So hopefully everything’s okay and we’ll do some assessment."
What Arsenal want to carry forward
Arsenal Women beat Tottenham on Saturday before the Benfica game.
Slegers said: "The foundation for us in the win was the intensity that we brought to the game, us as a collective attacking and defending together, the fight, the grittiness, the resilience, because also they scored the first goal in the game and we have to come back from it."
Slegers said: "So those things are important for us, and we definitely want to bring that to tomorrow night’s game as well."
