    Not a bad ball at all from the right and Jess Park is waiting in front of goal but Ona Batlle just beats her to it and is able to clear.

    She has been very impressive so far today.

    United enjoying the lion's share of the possession and the chances so far but Everton aren't making it easy for them.

    Alessia Russo has got it down the left again and fires in a cross and she's looking for Lucia Garcia but it was straight into the arms of Courtney Brosnan.

    Tottenham Hotspur

    Tottenham manager Rehanne Skinner on Spurs' League Cup loss to Chelsea and what they can take into this game, speaking to BBC Two: "The biggest thing for us was that we had a really good performance in that game.

    "We conceded a couple of goals we thought were cheap but we played really well, carried on to the end and got a goal in that game. Hopefully we bring that into today.

    On the impact Bethany England has had: "She's been fantastic. She's a hard worker, she's determined, has a lot of grit, wants to do well. That's driven another level of winning performances and wanting to really get into a good position, she's been fantastic for wanting to raise the team as has Mana Iwabuchi as well."

    Alessia Russo drives down the left-hand side, she pulls the ball back to Katie Zelem who sends it out wide to Ona Battle.

    The delivery comes in but it's cleared by an Everton header. Batlle had a lot of time there and possible could've opted for a different ball.

  7. 'The right time to move'published at 12:23 Greenwich Mean Time 5 February 2023

    Tottenham v Chelsea (12:30 GMT)

    Spurs striker Bethany England swapped Chelsea for Tottenham in January after seven years with Emma Hayes' side.

    She scored in her first WSL match with her new club last month and comes up against Chelsea today.

    She spoke to BBC Sport ahead of the game:

    Rikke Sevecke is on the turf and just needs a moment. She got caught between a few bodies going up for a header and looks like she might've just been caught by the glove of Courtney Brosnan.

    She's fine to continue, though.

    Another great crowd at LSV today and they are getting excited whenever Ona Batlle and Leah Galton pick up the ball. They have been United's most effective players going forwards so far. A first half-chance for Alessia Russo gets a ripple of "ooh"s but she drags the shot.

    Oh very clever from Ella Toone.

    She draws in two defenders and then just chips over the top and eventually finds Alessia Russo who has space and time just inside the area. But her right-footed shot is weak and it's easily picked up by Courtney Brosnan.

    Patient play from Manchester United, trying to find those gaps.

    Gabby George puts a crunching tackle in on Ona Batlle after the United full-back put one in on her before - that's shaping up to be a good battle.

    Tottenham v Chelsea (12:30 GMT)

    Chelsea

    Chelsea manager Emma Hayes, speaking to BBC Two: "Being [18 games unbeaten] helps us but we don't spend time thinking about what we've already done. For us it's about what we'll put into today's performance. The group's trained really well this week so I'm looking forward to seeing the progress from that.

    "You have to win. We have to win every game if we want to win the league. We have to respect we're playing a good opponent and the threats they pose. I'm just looking forward to kick-off."

    On the threat Bethany England poses: "She's a goal threat. She's clinical. We know what she's like in the box and aerially and how good her finishing is. We also know how we can make it difficult for her. We've got a group of players starting and coming from the bench who can make an impact.

    On Sam Kerr nearing 50 WSL goals: "She just continues to write her own script. I think she's the best in the world at what she does and I'd love for her to hit that landmark. As long as the team win she's not that bothered whether she scores or not."

    Both teams making it difficult for the other to play out from the back.

    Ona Batlle puts in a solid tackle on Gabby George as she tries to clear out of her own half but both sides are making it hard here.

    Good play from Manchester United. Lucia Garcia manages a nifty little turn in the box but is eventually muscled off the ball with too many Everton bodies in the way.

    But good pressure from the home side.

    Alessia Russo picks the ball up from the edge of the area and plays an intelligent little pass across the box to Haley Ladd, who manages to get a shot off but it's a weak effort and easily saved by Courtney Brosnan.

    Everton struggled to cope with the intensity of Manchester United in the reverse fixture but they look sharp so far. A close header from Rikke Sevecke and good pressure on goalkeeper Mary Earps to keep the ball in the final third. Jess Park has already made an impression.

    Nicoline Sorensen just marauds around the edge of the area looking for an opening, she sends a cross in towards the front post but it's cleared behind for an Everton corner.

    It's not a bad delivery from Sorensen and Rikke Sevecke gets a glancing header on but it goes wide.

    That was close.

    Early corner for Manchester United. Katie Zelem sends a looped cross in but it makes its way back towards goal keeper Mary Earps. United dominating possession in the early stages.

    Everton have never picked up a point in an away WSL game against Manchester United, losing all three games.

    Can they turn that around today?
