Motherwell face newly-promoted Partick Thistle on Sunday at Petershill Football Centre.
The Glasgow side finished in third place in the SWPL2 last season and missed out on promotion.
However, due to Forfar Farmington’s withdrawal from the SWPL1 at the start of the season, Thistle were moved up into the top flight.
Kick off is 1pm.
Fixture change
Celtic were due to be our opponents on Sunday 19 September in SWPL1.
Due to international call ups within the Celtic camp, the fixture has been postponed and will be played at a later date, and the fixture with Thistle from 26 September has been brought forward.
A further update will be provided in due course on our rearranged fixture against Celtic.
