Arsenal are winless in their last three league outings under Renee Slegers

Manchester City will host Arsenal in a crucial Women's Super League clash this Sunday, with kick-off scheduled for 4.30pm. City currently sit at the top of the league and remain unbeaten since April, while Arsenal's form has faltered under manager Renee Slegers. The Gunners have not won in their last three league matches, raising questions about Slegers' ability to lead the team effectively. A loss could significantly damage Arsenal's title hopes, creating a ten-point gap to City.

Meanwhile, Manchester United will take on Liverpool on Saturday at 1.30pm. United are still finding their footing under Eva Olid, who recently secured her first WSL victory against West Ham. The team has shown promise but needs to improve its attacking play. Despite having one of the best conversion rates in the league, they rank low in attempts and expected goals, indicating a need for more sustained offensive pressure.

In another exciting fixture, Tottenham will face London City Lionesses on Sunday at 2pm. Both teams have been in good form recently, with Tottenham earning 2.4 points per game since April. London City is close behind, and this match is seen as a significant test for both sides. Alexia Putellas, the captain of London City, is expected to exploit any weaknesses left by Spurs, having found her scoring touch in recent games.

Chelsea will also be in action against West Ham on Sunday at 2pm. Chelsea have shown defensive strength, conceding only one goal this season, and are looking to build on their recent performances. Manager Sonia Bompastor is keen to instil a ruthless edge in her squad, which has seen contributions from multiple players in scoring. The team's recent form suggests they are regaining their competitive edge.

Aston Villa will host Crystal Palace on Sunday, with Villa struggling to find form after eight winless outings. The club recently parted ways with manager Natalia Arroyo, and interim boss Brian Sorensen will focus on improving their defensive record. Both Villa and Palace have conceded ten goals this season, leading to a critical need for improvement in their defensive strategies. Meanwhile, Charlton will seek their first points of the season against Brighton, who are also in need of a turnaround.
