Arsenal Women vs Chelsea Women live stream: How to watch Women's Super League game online for FREE today, team news

Guro Reiten of Chelsea celebrates after scoring ahead of the Chelsea Women vs Tottenham Women WSL showdown.

It’s a massive top-of-the-table clash in the WSL as Arsenal Women take on Chelsea Women at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday. There will be a huge number of Lionesses and other international stars on display — and it's easy to watch from anywhere using a VPN.

Chelsea Women go into the game top of the pile as they try to retain their WSL title. Attacker Lauren James was the key performer for the Lionesses during the international break and will be looking to take on the Gunner's defence today. Aussie superstar Sam Kerr withdrew from the Matildas squad due to a foot injury but is fit to start. However, skipper Mille Bright is still recovering from a knee injury.

Arsenal Women will have been delighted to see striker Beth Mead get some minutes for England. They need her goalscoring prowess as they continue to bounce back from what was, by their exceptionally high standards, a slow start to the WSL season in which they lost to Liverpool on the opening day and drew with Man Utd. They have also been knocked out of the Women’s Champions League already. Viv Miedema is back on the bench after a long absence with an ACL injury.

These games are always tight, highly competitive affairs. The equivalent fixture last season was a 1-1 draw, whilst the Blues won their home game 2-0. 

Here's how they line up:


Arsenal: Zinsberger; McCabe, Ilestedt, Wubben-Moy, Catley; Pelova, Walti, Little; Mead, Russo, Foord

Chelsea: Chelsea: Berger; Perisset, Mjelde, Carter, Charles; Nusken, Cuthbert; Kaneryd, Fleming, James; Kerr

The Emirates is going to be packed today, but if you can’t make it there are plenty of ways to watch Arsenal Women vs Chelsea Women below.
