Team News

Chelsea FC Women
Arsenal Women
  • Sophie Ingle, Jorja Fox, Aniek Nouwen and Kadeisha Buchanan are all out with an ACL injury.

  • Amanda Ilestedt is out having had a baby at the end of August.

Prediction

  • This will be the match to watch this weekend and could have huge implications in the title race. Chelsea may have had a slight blip in 2024 drawing against Leicester but started 2025 with a 5-0 win against West Ham. They currently sit at the top on 31 points.
  • Arsenal also won their last match 5-0 against Crystal Palace. They sit in second but are seven points behind Chelsea.
  • This is the most played fixture in league history with Chelsea winning 12 of the previous 28 and Arsenal have won 10.
  • Arsenal have failed to win any of the last five away league games against Chelsea since they won 5-0 at Kingsmeadow in October 2018 under previous manager Joe Montemurro.
  • Chelsea have made their home stadiums fortresses as they have won 40 of their last 42 home games in the league.
  • This run started with a 3-0 win against Arsenal back in February 2021. They have also won all of their seven matches at Stamford Bridge and look likely to do so again but it'll be a tough fought match.
