Ten Opta statistics from the opening weeks of the 2017-18 WSL 1 season, run as hashtagged sidebars down the margins of the issue’s first half rather than as a spread. Karen Carney has created twenty-four chances, seven more than the next most creative player; Yeovil have put in the most tackles; Bristol City have the best shooting accuracy at 63.3 per cent. Rachel Rowe of Reading has attempted the most dribbles, one ahead of Gemma Davison. Jade Moore and Remi Allen, both of Reading, have conceded the most fouls. Jordan Nobbs and Magdalena Eriksson have attempted the most passes and Gilly Flaherty completed the most. Everton’s Lizzie Durack has made twenty-eight saves, more than any other keeper, and Tash Harding and Izzy Christiansen lead the scoring on four apiece.
