Arsenal vs Chelsea – LIVE!

Arsenal are looking to kickstart their season in the Women’s Super League this afternoon when they host London rivals Chelsea at the Emirates Stadium. The Gunners have endured a fairly miserable start to the campaign, winning only one of their opening three WSL games thus far and were thrashed by Bayern Munich earlier this week. Manager Jonas Eidevall, however, insists any external pressure does not match up with the one he puts on himself and vowed to fight on despite mounting criticism.

The Blues, meanwhile, are in fine form under new manager Sonia Bompastor. They’ve won both of their games thus far and overcame Real Madrid in the Champions League as they show little sign of a drop off following the end of the Emma Hayes era.

Chelsea could well inflict more damage on Arsenal as they look to win the League title once more. Follow all the action LIVE with Standard Sport’s dedicated match blog!
