    Arsenal take on Chelsea in the Women’s Super League at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday, as the Gunners bid to put pressure on those at the top of the table.

    Chelsea have had a flawless start to the season so far, winning both of their matches and scoring eight goals without conceding.

    Arsenal on the other hand have only won one of their opening three matches, but are still unbeaten having drawn the other two.

    Jonas Eidevall’s side were beaten 5-2 at home to Bayern Munich in the Women’s Champions League on Wednesday with former Chelsea player Pernille Harder scoring a hat-trick.
