Chelsea Women have been hit by a major blow, with Sam Kerr becoming the latest female footballer to suffer a devastating ACL injury. The Blues and Matildas star will not feature again this season. Emma Hayes’s side has generally been on a great run of form but did lose 4-1 to Arsenal Women recently, meaning the title race is wide open. They go into the weekend just three points clear of Manchester City.
Man Utd Women, meanwhile, lost their last WSL match before the winter break, suffering a shock 1-2 defeat at the hands of Liverpool. It is not the only questionable result Mark Skinner’s team have had and they know they face a huge test in this game. Ella Toone has netted three times in the last four games in all competitions and the Red Devils will need that run to continue.
Here's how they line up:
Chelsea Women: Hampton, Fishel, Leupolz, James, Reiten, Lawrence, Kaneryd, Charles (c), Cuthbert, Buchanan, Bjorn
Man Utd Women: Earps, Le Tissier, Blundell, Toone, Zelem (c), Galton, Ladd, Riviere, L. Garcia, Turner, Geyse
With Lionesses such as goalkeeper Mary Earps on display alongside world stars, the Chelsea Women vs Man Utd Women live stream is set to attract a large crowd to Stamford Bridge. If you can't make it, read on to find out how to watch it from anywhere.
