    GOAL - West Ham 0-2 Chelseapublished at 14:42 BST

    Johanna Rytting Kaneryd (13 mins)

    Ominous.

    It is really poor defending by West Ham. Wieke Kaptein has two players on her down the left wing but she somehow escapes and cuts a cross back from the byline.

    The centre backs are static in the area, allowing Rytting Kaneryd to nip between them and finish unmarked from six yards.

    Way too easy for the champions.

    It's a brilliant strike and Hannah Hampton was beaten there. Chelsea saved by the post.

    West Ham 0-1 Chelsea

    Very close to an equaliser!

    Katrina Gorry has looked dangerous in the opening minutes and takes aim here from 20 yards, her right foot strike clattering the outside of the post.

    Hannah Hampton was beaten.

    Aggie-Beever-Jones, beautifully just over the top of the wall into the corner. It's a beautiful finish from her.

    Beever-Jones opens Chelsea scoring with 'majestic' free-kick

    That is special!

    Beever-Jones takes the free kick she won and it is textbook - curled unstoppably over the wall and into the top corner, Kinga Szemik in the West Ham goal had no chance at all.

    Four WSL games, four WSL goals for Beever-Jones this season.

    West Ham 0-0 Chelsea

    West Ham defender Shelina Zadorsky bundles over Aggie Beever-Jones and gives away a soft free kick 25 yards out.

    The Canadian is also booked. She could be in for a long afternoon.

    Viv Asseyi was at full stretch there. It was a good break and a strong start for West Ham.

    West Ham 0-0 Chelsea

    It is an odd formation for Chelsea today, it looks like a 3-4-3 with Wieke Kaptein and Alyssa Thompson pushing up alongside Aggie Beever-Jones.

    Sonia Bompastor confident enough to experiment today.

    This was West Ham's fortress last season and a place where they picked up many points. It's a test against Chelsea, who are top of the league. They're growling into a team where they play on the front foot and they've lost their fear against the top clubs.

    It will be an interesting game today.

  10. CLOSE!published at 4 mins

    West Ham 0-0 Chelsea

    Should be 1-0 to West Ham!

    Katrina Gorry strides through the midfield, and plays a good low cross for Viv Asseyi who has loads of space in the box.

    On the stretch, Asseyi can't quite guide her effort on target.

    Aggie Beever-Jones bursts clean through early doors, but the offside flag goes up.

    An early warning for West Ham.

    Chelsea fan. Three games, nine points but we have been quite average so far. Too much chopping and changing for me with players expected to have an instant impact whilst not playing regularly - Reiten is a perfect example of this. Strange team selection today, fourcentral midfielders?

    Chelsea

    Chelsea head coach Sonia Bompastor, speaking on BBC iPlayer: "Really pleased with the results. But again, coming to the game today we expect a tough battle against West Ham. It's a London derby and we know this team will be playing really good football and causing some trouble.

    Before kick-off, we have a minute's silence in memory of the late Matt Beard.

    Beard managed both of these teams in his illustrious career.

    West Ham manager Rehanne Skinner and Chelsea head of football Paul Green lay a wreath on the pitch in Beard's memory.

    West Ham United

    West Ham manager Rehanne Skinner, speaking on BBC iPlayer: "I think we've done a lot of things well at certain points in games but we've not been as consistent as we'd like in the whole 90/100 minutes. I think that's the thing that we're aiming for today, to be consistent with the way we want to play."

    The players have emerged at the Chigwell Construction Stadium.

    It seems like a daunting task for West Ham, but remember they drew with Chelsea and beat Arsenal here last season.

    West Ham v Chelsea (14:30 BST)

    • Chelsea have won 17 of their last 18 games against West Ham United across all competitions - but did draw the most recent one 2-2.
    • The Blues are aiming to win their opening four Women’s Super League games of a campaign for the fifth time, winning the league in three of the previous four campaigns where they did so.
    • Aggie Beever-Jones is aiming to be the first ever Chelsea player to score in her first four games of a WSL season.
    • Wieke Kaptein is yet to lose in any of her first 19 WSL games for Chelsea. Only Daphné Corboz - 20 games for Man City in 2015-16 - has gone on a longer unbeaten run from their league debut.
    • West Ham United have lost each of their last five WSL games and could lose six in a row for the first time ever. Hammers’ boss Rehanne Skinner has only once before had a longer streak herself in the competition, losing her final nine games in charge of Tottenham.
  20. 'Good three points for us'published at 14:22 BST

    FT: Liverpool 0-2 Man Utd

    Manchester United

    Manchester United manager Marc Skinner, speaking to Sky Sports: "We spoke at half-time around what we wanted second half. I just spoke to the players in the huddle that we weren't good enough second half with the ball, we made rushed decisions. I don't even think that was Liverpool's pressure, it was just us. What I loved about the group is they were like, 'Yeah, it isn't good enough', so their standards are already there.

    "We'll learn from it. Another clean sheet. Another two goals. Two different goalscorers, so yeah it's a good three points for us."

    On Hinata Miyazawa's stunning strike: "She hit one against Brighton last year, it was an incredible finish from the edge of the penalty area with her right foot. But it's so clean, it hits the perfect part of the post to zip it around. It's a beautiful goal. She's got that and we've asked her to score more goals because I think she's got beautiful technique. I'm sure she'll enjoy that."
