Brighton go close to grabbing a second in added time in the first half, with Maya Le Tissier curling a cross in from the right and Danielle Carter meeting it in the middle, only to nod narrowly over the crossbar.

Neat turn on the left by Katerina Svitkova and she whips a low ball into the six-yard box, but none of her West Ham team-mates can get to it and Brighton clear.

It's relentless pressure from Chelsea and only a matter time before they net again.

Five minutes added on at the end of the opening period.

Oooh!

This time Inessa Kaagman decides to take her chances from long range following a short free-kick, firing a left-footed effort towards the top corner from distance, but Mackenzie Arnold flies across her goal to tip it over. Great effort.

Brighton break through the West Ham line again and almost tee up Inessa Kaagman but the pass is slightly overhit and the midfielder can't get a toe to it.

Guro Reiten v Esmee de Graaf is a total mismatch.

The Leicester player really needs some defensive support from her team-mates.

Ellie Brazil has taken a knock and will be replaced by Geum-min Lee.

Guro Reiten is causing all sorts of issues for the Leicester defence.

She puts in another delightful cross which little Sam Kerr meets, but the header is gathered by Demi Lambourne's flying save.

Best chance for the hosts so far as Katerina Svitkova goes charging down the left and coaxes a ball across the face of goal for Tameka Yallop, but Katie Startup narrows the angle well and makes a smart save.

Phil: People always say in game like this "gameplan will have been not to concede". You are playing Chelsea! They've scored 40-odd times in 16 games. They WILL score! As pundit admits, when they do your plan is out the window. So plan to attack and at least have a chance.

The final ball is lacking for West Ham at the moment, they've not really carved out a decent opportunity and it's all a little too easy for Brighton to defend.

What's Millie Bright doing up there?

The Chelsea skipper makes her way forward and almost catches out Demi Lambourne at the near post.

As it stands, Chelsea are moving to the top of the WSL table, one point clear of Arsenal.

But they have also eaten up the Gunners' goal difference.

Abbie McManus was ruled out of the game and now Ashleigh Plumptre has gone off, meaning Leicester are without their first-choice centre-back pairing.

Oh, and they're 5-0 down at home.

Oh, and there's still over an hour to play.

And now it's West Ham who flood forward, but Brighton goalkeeper Katie Startup dives out to gather a cross confidently and bring an end to that attack.

Ashleigh Plumptre looks very groggy as she makes her way off the pitch.

On comes Sophie Barker after half an hour.

Almost a second for Brighton as they break down the right once more, but some last-ditch defending denies Emma Koivisto as she shapes to shoot.

Great play initially. Beth England delivers whenever she plays; Reiten knew exactly what she was going to do, the ball was perfection. Then it was a great finish.
