Close behind are six-time defending champions Chelsea, who handed City their only defeat of the campaign with a 2-1 win earlier this season. Chelsea also knocked the Citizens out of the Women’s League Cup with a 1-0 win thanks to Wieke Kaptein’s first-half header.
Man City will be keen to return the favor and dent Chelsea’s title push. A win would stretch the gap between the two sides to double figures.
The head-to-head record favors the Blues, who have won four of their last five meetings. However, they will have to accommodate City’s lethal striker Khadija Shaw – the league’s top scorer with 13 goals in 13 games. “Bunny,” along with Vivianne Miedema and Yui Hasegawa, has been central to City’s impressive WSL run this season.
