Chelsea will begin their pursuit of a fifth consecutive Women’s Super League title at home to Tottenham on a day when four of the six opening fixtures will be played at clubs’ main stadiums but the second round of matches will generate more excitement in the context of the battle to finish top.
Manchester City host Chelsea and Manchester United play at home to Arsenal on the weekend of 7-8 October, meaning the teams who finished in the top four places last season will face one another.
