Chelsea Women Seek Unbeaten Season Against Tottenham Today

London, UK — Chelsea Women, fresh off their sixth consecutive Women’s Super League title, are set to face Tottenham Hotspur this afternoon. The match takes place at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium at 2:15 PM BST. The Blues clinched the title last Wednesday with a 1-0 victory over Manchester United, following a surprising 5-2 defeat of Arsenal by Aston Villa.
Despite their recent triumph, Chelsea is focused on maintaining their unbeaten record in all domestic competitions this season. Head coach Sonia Bompastor confirmed significant changes to the starting lineup, opting to rest key players after their title victory. Chelsea’s lineup will feature goalkeeper Hannah Hampton and a new back four, while an attacking front of Macario, Hamano, and Fishel aims to secure the win against their London rivals.
Tottenham’s lineup includes goalkeeper Lize Kop, with a defensive line featuring Ashleigh Neville and Jessica Naz. The team made three changes from their previous match as they aim to upset the champions.
Spurs head coach Robert Vilahamn praised Chelsea’s achievements during a press conference, calling their successes in recent years deserving of admiration. “What they are doing in the women’s game is massive,” he said. Vilahamn expressed confidence in his squad, emphasizing that the rivalry with Chelsea always brings excitement and intensity.
While Chelsea is heavily favored to win, Tottenham hopes to leverage their recent performances to challenge their opponents. The anticipation is high for a match that serves not only as a title celebration but also as a critical test for Spurs as they look to improve their standing after a difficult season.
The broadcast of the match can be seen on BBC Two in the UK, with streaming options available on BBC iPlayer. Fans are welcomed to witness the Chelsea Women receive a guard of honor ahead of the match.
