From the corner, Manchester United break at pace. Arsenal do well to scramble back and defuse the danger.

And again, Manchester United are worked in defence and concede another corner.

Beth Meads sends in an in-swinger from the left, but Leah Galton clears.

Stat of the day alert…

Arsenal have scored 99 goals via set pieces in the WSL. Cool, you say…

Should they score via a set piece in this match, they will become the first ever WSL team to score 100 set piece goals.

Arsenal now with a free kick in a dangerous area on the right.

Katie McCabe stands over it. But it ends up skipping well wide.

Arsenal with the first corner of the game.

It is directed to the near post, but is cleared without any problem,

Beth Mead crashes a wonderful effort off the cross bar.

A lovely ball out to the left to Katie McCabe stretches Manchester United's defence. The ball is cut back for Mead, and she slams it off the underside of the bar.

The rebound falls for Vivianne Miedema, but she fails to properly control it. Danger averted for United in a big way, that.

Alessia Russo looks keen to make an early impact.

She get on the ball for United and strides towards the box and drifts from the left and has a go from distance. It's well blocked.

Last time these two met at the Leigh Sports Villa in the 2020/21 season, Manchester United ended Arsenal’s perfect start to the campaign.

Ella Toone got the decisive goal that day. It is the only time United have beaten the Gunners in the women’s top flight.

If United were to win again, it would once again end Arsenal's unbeaten run to the league season.

Some nice early build-up from Manchester United.

Eventually Leah Galton finds space to cross on the left. It's a dangerous ball, with a little too much on it. There is no-one to meet it.

And we are up and running.

We start at the Leigh Sport Village this afternoon, but we have four other games to look forward to...

• Chelsea v Birmingham City (14:00 GMT)
• Leicester City v Everton (14:00 GMT)
• Reading v Brighton (14:00 GMT)
• West Ham v Tottenham (15:00 GMT)

Stay with us as we bring you live text commentary and updates from each.

One WSL game has already taken place this weekend.

Manchester City boss Gareth Taylor says they are "still not out of the woods" despite an emphatic win over Aston Villa on Saturday.

Goals from Caroline Weir, Georgia Stanway, two from sub Hayley Raso and Lauren Hemp sealed a comfortable win.

City had only won one of their past six league games and lost 2-1 at Manchester United in the League Cup on Wednesday.

Check out the highlights from Saturday's game above.

Manchester United's record goalscorer Ella Toone signed a new contract with the club on Saturday.

Check out just some reasons the Red Devils were so keen to have the England international commit for a few more years...

Toone joined BBC Sport's Liam MacDevitt to break down the key elements of her game… creating space, the perfect assist and penalties. Watch the video above.

Manchester United boss Marc Skinner makes two changes from the side that drew 1-1 with Everton in the WSL last week.

Lucy Staniforth comes back into the starting line-up, as does Kirsty Hanson.

After making a number of changes for their Women's Champions League win against Koge on Wednesday, Arsenal revert back to a side that resembles the one that drew with Tottenham in the WSL last week.

There is just one change from that side, with Jen Beattie starting. Leah Williamson is, of course, missing for the Gunners with the hamstring injury that could keep her out until after Christmas.
