The Matildas' custodian also believes Canberra's attackers need to be bold and ''pull the trigger'' more often to ensure United doesn't slump to a third straight defeat.
A fortnight after the shock 2-0 defeat to the South Australians, United get a chance for redemption when they host the Lady Reds at McKellar Park on Sunday.
It was the first time traditional strugglers Adelaide had collected all three points against Canberra, the 2011-12 champions.
Adelaide is now just one point behind fourth-placed United as both sides make a push towards the finals.
''We know exactly what they're going to do,'' Williams said.
''They showed all their cards in that game and we didn't show all of ours. This game on the weekend is the opportunity to put everything out on the table and I think we can definitely take them.
''It's time for revenge.''
United is coming off a controversial 2-1 loss to Melbourne Victory last week, with refereeing decisions marring the contest.
United has a potentially strong attacking combination in Matildas striker Michelle Heyman and American import Stephanie Ochs.
Williams believes United needs to play more to that strength and put the opposition's defence under increased pressure.
''We need to be more confident and take more shots,'' Williams said.
''As the season's gone on a lot of teams have figured out the way that we play.
''We need to figure out how we're going to counter them.
''Just a lot more shooting to get our confidence up and force them into more saves.''
■ SUNDAY
W-League: Canberra United v Adelaide United at McKellar Park at 3pm.
