Both teams have been in incredible form, with City winning their last ten matches, and seven in the WSL and showing signs of the kind of form that was missing last season. Chelsea have also won their last ten on the trot, having won four straight WSL matches since losing 4-1 at Arsenal in December.
Chelsea will once again be without Millie Bright, Sam Kerr, Aniek Nouwen and Catarina Macario, who are all out with injury, however, Lauren James may make the starting line-up after missing last weekend's FA Cup tie with Crystal Palace through illness. Jill Roord is City's long-term absentee, and Steph Houghton has joined her on the injury list. Otherwise, City have a full-strength squad to choose from. Bunny Shaw, who limped off midway through the second half of City's 1-0 FA Cup win at Arsenal last weekend, has been declared fit by manager Gareth Taylor.
