What happened: Pauline Astier and Leonie Fiebich remain in the announced five-player lineup. Astier wears No. 18, while Fiebich takes No. 13.

Why it matters: The decision preserves the lineup continuity established two days earlier. It also gives both players another opening assignment late in the regular season.

By the numbers: Astier is set for her 13th documented start since June 30.

What to watch: Their minutes and roles within the five-player unit bear watching once play begins.
