    Rebecca Welch will become the first female referee for a Premier League game when she acts as the fourth official at Craven Cottage.

    Wendy Toms was the first woman assistant in the Premier League, from its inception, and was followed by Natalie Aspinall and Sian Massey-Ellis. Welch will be the first to take on one of the roles of a referee, with Massey-Ellis the assistant VAR for the game.

    In January, Welch was chosen as the first woman to referee a men's Championship match when she took charge of Birmingham City against Preston North End.

    Tottenham lead the way, with 26 points from a possible 30, two points ahead of both Arsenal and Manchester City and three ahead of Liverpool.

    "What has happened in the last five years is unprecedented," said Arteta.

    "It never happened with the amount of points and level of the teams."
