    Arsenal 1-0 Man City

    Just the second WSL goal City have conceded this season, and the first they have conceded with 11 players on the pitch.

    If you don't take your chances, you can get burned.

    That was clinical. The first shot on goal. Lovely bit of build-up and you can see how free Catley gets at the back post.

    Catley, in acres of space just dispatches it into the top corner.

    Look at that for a finish.

    GOAL - Arsenal 1-0 Man Citypublished at 12:45 Greenwich Mean Time 5 November 2023

    Steph Catley (13 mins)

    Against the run of play!

    This time City are punished playing out from the back, Khiara Keating's poor clearance is intercepted.

    Arsenal play the ball out to the left where the onrushing Steph Catley can sweep brilliantly into the far top corner. Just her second ever WSL goal.

    Just not enough angle from Bunny Shaw. Excellent run and we know she's got excellent speed. Decent shot but Zinsberger should always save that one.

    Again, [Kelly's shot] comes from City's pressure. She just drags it wide. Again, it comes from the waves of pressure.

    Arsenal 0-0 Man City

    It's all City.

    Khadija Shaw fires in a low shot to the near post which Manuela Zinsberger smothers.

    Then, City get the ball back high up the field again, Chloe Kelly turns on the edge of the area and shoots just past the post with Zinsberger static.

    Manchester City have certainly started on the front foot - that press earns them the ball back after Arsenal keeper Manuela Zinsberger tried to play out, and they get a corner.

    Arsenal clear the set piece.

    They are putting numbers forward and you can see from the goal kick they don't want to allow Arsenal possession of the ball.

    Arsenal are playing with what looks like a back four. Katie McCabe is at right-back.

    Manchester City have got their usual fluid front three with Chloe Kelly, Bunny Shaw and Lauren Hemp, who will switch sides throughout.

  10. YELLOW CARDpublished at 8 mins

    Arsenal 0-0 Man City

    Another early booking for an Arsenal player, this time for Cloe Lacasse after a late tackle on Khadija Shaw.

    Both home holding midfielders in the book in the opening 10 minutes, but both were definitely yellow card challenges.

  11. YELLOW CARDpublished at 6 mins

    Arsenal 0-0 Man City

    Bit of a late hatchet job by Lia Walti on Jill Roord in midfield, she knows that's a poor tackle.

    It's an early booking for the Arsenal player.

    You can already see the rotation of that front three as well as the number 10 position.

    She should have done better, really, Bunny Shaw. That's an early sign of the threat of City.

    Lauren Hemp then gets into the area, taking on Amanda Ilestedt, but slips as she is about to deliver the final ball.

    Early warning signs for Arsenal.

    Referee Rebecca Welch is in charge today.

    She made history by becoming the first female fourth official to work at a Premier League game yesterday.

    Welch was working at Craven Cottage for Fulham's narrow defeat by Manchester United.

    Game one of five today is under way, and it should be a blockbuster.

    Ellen White
    Former England striker on BBC Two

    She has had a really tough year and to see her back, after that awful injury, is great.

    She creates so much for them [Arsenal] and I am so happy for her.

    Here come the players at Meadow Park.

    Vivianne Miedema is captured by TV cameras on the bench for Arsenal, hot water bottle in hand. Gives you an idea of temperatures in north London today.

    Fara Williams
    Former England midfielder on BBC Two

    They will see this game as an opportunity to put themselves back amongst the pack.

    They are only three points behind Manchester City. If they win, they get back level on points. That will be an incentive for their players today.
