"Arsenal v Chelsea is a biggie at the best of times, never mind when it's the champions of Europe vs the champions of England and both teams unashamedly cover their neighbour's titles. It's a bigger game for Arsenal, whose hopes of winning the WSL title will be imperilled should they lose today. They're already five points behind Chelsea after seven games; and while that is largely down to a tough run of fixtures, they can't afford the gap to widen to eight points."
"Chelsea Hampton, Bronze, Bright, Bjorn, Charles, Walsh, Cuthbert, Kaptein, Rytting Kaneryd, Thompson, Macario. Substitutes: Peng, Carpenter, Buurman, Nusken, Girma, Baltimore, Kerr, Hamano, Jean-Francois Share Manchester United v Aston Villa also kicks off at midday. We'll have goalflashes from that game; just don't expect chapter on verse on whether United are playing 4-2-3-1 or 4-3-3.
