Arsenal host rivals Chelsea in a crucial Women’s Super League clash at the Emirates.

The Gunners have made a poor start to the new season with Jonas Eidevall already under pressure following a 5-2 thrashing at the hands of Bayern Munich in the Champions League this week. Eidevall described the visit of champions Chelsea as “must-win” with his side winning just one of their opening three games of the season, and could be knocked out of the title race already should Chelsea continue their winning start.

The Blues have made a fine start under Sonia Bompastor with a 3-2 victory over Real Madrid on Tuesday night adding to opening wins against Aston Villa and Crystal Palace in the WSL. Under Emma Hayes, Chelsea lost this fixture 4-1 at the Emirates last season but roared back to win their fifth consecutive title, although it was the Gunners who triumphed in the Continental Cup final last March.

Arsenal on the other hand have only won one of their opening three matches, but are still unbeaten having drawn the other two.
