Chelsea are making it a little cagey at the moment and Tottenham have dropped the tempo a little.

Now it's time for a Leicester corner.

In in comes towards Chantelle Swaby but her goal bound header is hooked off the line.

So close to the opener!

A big glug of water does the trick for Oriane Jean-Francois and she's back on her feet. On we go...

Birmingham are applying all the early pressure. A free kick into the away box is not fully cleared, Emily van Egmond sends a free header goalwards and Lionesses forward Chantelle Boye-Hlorkah has to turn defender and make a goal-line clearance.

The Lionesses will have to work very hard for this promotion.

Chelsea haven't got into their flow of silky movement with passes and flowing movement forward.

Ouch. Oriane Jean-Francois takes a ball to the face and she falls flat to the floor. That was a sore one and the French midfielder is receiving some medical attention.

First shot in anger for the visitors and it's Hlin Eiriksdottir who slams it into the side netting.

Should be hitting it across goal there.

Bethany England looks on it today. She's kickstarting plenty of Spurs attacks and the only reason she doesn't find a way through there is because of a shirt pull by Oriane Jean-Francois.

It's slack from Leicester at the back and they lay it on a plate for Molly-Mae Sharpe to have a go from the edge of the box.

Her shot is scuffed and trickles into the hands of Janina Leitzig in the Foxes goal.

An even start to the Championship decider, but Birmingham come closest to a breakthrough when Simone Magill cuts the ball back with the keeper onrushing and committed.

Former Brighton forward Lee Geum-min seems certain to tuck home, but gets crowded out and the ball squirms wide.

Reminder that Birmingham need to win this match, Lionesses require a draw.

That's a let-off for Chelsea.

That early ball to the near post is on and Beth England executes it beautifully.

Any touch from Charli Grant and that would've been goal bound.

What a ball that was from Bethany England.

It's just an inch or two in front of Charlotte Grant, who is on the stretch and can't poke it around Hannah Hampton.

Molly-Mae Sharpe does well in the middle to break free of the challenge and power up the pitch. She finds Annabel Blanchard to her right but her left-footed curler is charged down.

Eveliina Summanen gives away a cheap corner, but it's a poor delivery from Chelsea's Guro Reiten and Spurs charge forward.

Chelsea have not settled yet. Jess Naz steals possession from Ashley Lawrence before teeing up Charlotte Grant, who can only run into trouble.

Mille Gejl wins the ball back in the middle of the park with a strong challenge. The referee put the whistle to his lips but decided against awarding a free-kick.

Another corner for Palace comes to nothing.

They've been the better of the two sides so far and they'll want to end their season on as much of a high as they can, despite already being relegated.

There are only two recognised defenders on the pitch for Chelsea. There will be a lack of understanding with the makeshift back line that they have.
