Chelsea legend Eni Aluko has backed her former club to come out on top in this year's WSL title race but admits the Blues' "ultimate test" will come in the Champions League.
Chelsea returned to the summit of the WSL table following their narrow victory over Manchester United last time out and are firmly on course to bag their fourth consecutive top-flight title. However, Emma Hayes' side are yet to taste success in the Champions League, having lost out to Barcelona in the Final in 2021.
The Blues will hope their unbeaten run in this year's competition continues when they travel to Lyon for the first leg of the quarter-finals on Wednesday. But Aluko - who scored 68 goals in 158 appearances for Chelsea - believes the WSL leaders will have to be at their best if they are to triumph over the reigning European Champions at the Parc Olympique Lyonnais.
