Manchester United Women host Arsenal Women after both sides have netted nine times in their opening two Barclays WSL matches of the season.

The top two clash in Sunday’s late kick-off, less than three days after United play their home leg in UWCL qualifiers against SK Brann.

Like the Gunners and Man United, Chelsea look to make it three straight wins against Leicester, likewise Spurs who tackle Manchester City on Friday. Grace Clinton could make her City debut but Lily Murphy has had surgery for a shoulder injury, Ashleigh Neville is back in training for Tottenham.

London City Lionesses look for their first ever WSL points at Everton also on Friday, while back with Sunday’s noon starts Aston Villa play Liverpool and Brighton welcome West Ham.

Sunderland’s derby with Durham gets the weekend’s WSL2 fixtures underway on Friday, while Charlton are already the sole side left with a 100% record and home to Ipswich who seek their first ever points at this level.

Portsmouth hope to get off the mark against Sheffield United at Fratton Park, Nottingham Forest go in search of their first home WSL points versus Crystal Palace, unbeaten pair Birmingham and Newcastle go head-to-head, Southampton are also undefeated and home to Bristol City.
