the revamped London City Lionesses made it two wins from three with a 4-1 victory at Charlton while Chelsea, who are hoping to regain their WSL crown, beat Birmingham 2-0 thanks to goals from Lexi Potter and Melvine Malard. Those results have pushed Arsenal down to sixth in the table, while United are second bottom with only Charlton below them.

things are not going well in the world of the Arsenal men's team …

Manchester City have set the pace in the title race with three wins on the trot, beating Liverpool 4-2 last night. Here's Tom Garry's report, in case you missed it.

It's not been an ideal start to the Women's Super League season for either Arsenal or Manchester United, though the latter are in considerably worse shape two games in. While Renée Slegers' side were frustrated in their goalless draw against Crystal Palace last Sunday, making a whole host of chances but failing to find the net, Eva Olid has kicked off her United tenure with back-to-back defeats including a 5-0 loss to Chelsea.

All that adds a sense of urgency to this game, with the hosts looking to reassert their title credentials and the visitors under pressure to stop the slide. It should be decent entertainment, one way or another. Let's get to it.
