Wales boss Rhian Wilkinson says she will pick “the best team available” as her squad of “trailblazers” bid to move closer to reaching the Women's Euros.
Wales are unbeaten under Rhian Wilkinson and should be able to welcome back their record appearance-maker and top goalscorer Jess Fishlock for their game in PopradLive on BBC Two Wales, iPlayer, BBC Radio Wales and Radio Cymru, the BBC Sport website and app, plus live text commentaryWales boss Rhian Wilkinson has backed her squad of "trailblazers" bid to make national football history.
Fishlock, also Wales' most-capped player, has been out for six weeks with a leg injury sustained playing for Seattle Reign."Jess is ready to go and if she wasn't she wouldn't be here and that's from her perspective as well, because she puts the team first on all things."Fishlock has won trophies in five different countries in her glittering career, but she has never played in a major international tournament.
"Sophie Ingle, Jess Fishlock... these are our Gareth Bales and Aaron Ramseys, but they aren't spoken about because there hasn't been that level of coverage of the women's game," Wilkinson said. "Slovakia have some real threats and they will hurt us if we don't deliver our level of performance."
