Prediction

  • This game was originally meant to be played at the start of the season but now we are seven games in for both sides with this being their game in hand and will even things up in the standings.
  • Chelsea won their last match 2-0 against title rivals Manchester City and sit top. Manchester United also won their last match 2-0 against Leicester and they sit in fifth.
  • Chelsea have won eight of their nine matches against United in the league and have scored three goals on average in those games. United have beaten every WSL team they've faced apart from Chelsea. They've lost more games (8), scored fewer goals (7) and conceded more goals (27) than they have against any other opponent.
  • Chelsea manager Sonia Bompastor has become the first ever manager in WSL history to win their opening seven matches. She has managed to win 40 of her last 42 league matches with Lyon and now the Blues, with just one draw and one loss in those 42 games.
  • Chelsea look unstoppable so it should be a solid win for the Blues and further cementing their place at the top.
