Preamble
How are we here already? It only feels like a few weeks ago we were gearing up for the season to start, and now it’s the final day. Time flies!
On the opening day of the campaign, 253 days ago, Manchester City suffered a 2-1 defeat to Chelsea. Fast-forward eight months and they will today be crowned WSL champions for the first time in a decade. It’s been an incredible season for Andrée Jeglertz and his players, who will finally get their hands on the trophy this afternoon following their match against West Ham at the Chigwell Construction Stadium.
It’s quite rare that there is not much to play for on the final day of a WSL season – the biggest battle today will likely remain between Arsenal and Chelsea for second place, which means one less round of qualification for the Champions League. The Gunners travel to Anfield to face Liverpool, while Chelsea host Manchester United at Stamford Bridge.
Elsewhere, Brighton face Tottenham, London City Lionesses end their debut WSL season against Aston Villa, and Everton take on last-placed Leicester City.
I’ll be guiding you through all the action, with each game kicking off at 1pm BST – join me!
