The Barclays Women’s Super League weekend begins at Stamford Bridge and comes to a climax with the Manchester derby at Old Trafford.

Chelsea return from Champions League action in Madrid to host Liverpool on Saturday lunchtime, Manchester United meet Manchester City in a late afternoon kick off on Sunday, with the Reds two points better off than their neighbours. Ticket sales for the derby have already exceeded 40,000.

Everton entertain basement side Bristol City with just a point separating them, Brighton take on second-placed Arsenal, before Leicester City have a visit from Spurs and West Ham go up against Aston Villa with only a point between the two.

A massive clash in the Championship sees new leaders Charlton Athletic go head-to-head with Sunderland at The Valley, while third plays fourth with Crystal Palace tackling Southampton at Selhurst Park.

Birmingham City have a mid-table meeting with Durham, Blackburn Rovers – boosted by beating the leaders last Sunday – are home to Reading.

Watford welcome Sheffield United to Vicarage Road, Lewes look to get off the foot of the table when hosting London City Lionesses.
