Arsenal host Manchester United at a sold-out Emirates as the Gunners look to relaunch their bid for the Women’s Super League title.

Manchester City’s win over leaders Chelsea on Friday night has presented an opportunity to Arsenal, who sit third in the table following a shock defeat to West Ham last time out.

Arsenal would go three points off top with a win while United are fourth, a further four points behind Arsenal ahead of this Saturday lunchtime fixture.

United won at the Emirates last season on their way to finishing second in the WSL table to champions Chelsea, but this season has been tougher for Marc Skinner’s side.
