Arsenal Women host Chelsea Women at The Emirates Stadium for tonight’s Champions League quarter-final.
The reigning champions aim for a strong first-leg performance against their London rivals, with a second leg scheduled at Stamford Bridge next week.
Both teams are trailing in the WSL title race and view this match as an opportunity to shine in Europe. The winner will face either Wolfsburg or Lyon in the semi-finals.
Arsenal has a positive outlook, given their unbeaten record against Chelsea this season with one win and one draw in the WSL.
