Chelsea are so close to making history in the WSL with a moment that will be remembered for a long time. They will set a whole new record for the number of the games in a row without defeat with just a draw or a win against Liverpool. Also, the North London derby has a lot of importance as Tottenham seem to be a different team under new leadership.
Chelsea Chase Unbeaten Milestone
It would be another 34 league games that Chelsea would be unbeaten if they managed to win this match. On top of that, Millie Bright is going to be turning her 211th WSL appearance, which is definitely another one of her milestones.
After getting their first point last week, Liverpool have been building up their power. Their boss, who has caused problems to Chelsea in the past, is therefore a source of worry for this match. Chelsea are holding the front still, however, the intensity is still there as they are on the verge of making history.
Derby Heat as Spurs Challenge Arsenal
Under Martin Ho, Tottenham have demonstrated growth. Their quick style of play is a total contrast to Arsenal’s more controlled one. Tottenham have defeated Arsenal on more occasions than Arsenal have defeated them this season, which is an indicator that they have come a long way. However, they haven’t played well in games against the top half teams.
Arsenal are good in derbies and are aware of the significance of this rivalry. The game becomes very important for both teams as the league table is getting tighter.
