    Man Utd v Chelsea (12:30 BST)

    Man Utd have never beaten Chelsea in the WSL in their three previous attempts (D1 L2).

    Emma Hayes' side are one of two teams they haven’t beaten in the competition, along with Man City.

    Is today the day Marc Skinner can put an end to that? The Red Devils have won their last five home games.

    Chelsea want momentum. They want games, they want points and they want to move up the table. The international window hasn’t been ideal. Lots of players have been away and there hasn’t really been much contact time. That’s frustrating.
