We’re just days away from the start of the new Women’s Super League campaign as Manchester United kick off the season against Reading on Friday.

Chelsea take on Arsenal in their opening fixture, with the Blues looking to start the new season in the same way they finished off the last.

GiveMeSport Women runs through everything you need to know about Chelsea, including the club background, star players, fan opinion and our predicted final position come May.

Chelsea’s background:

Chelsea Women were founded in 1992 and have been affiliated with the men’s side since 2004. The club is one of the founding members of the WSL, which was formed in 2010.

Since 2015, Chelsea have won four WSL titles, making them the most successful team in the history of the competition.

Coach Emma Hayes has engineered all of these wins, having taken over the club in 2012 following a period as Arsenal’s assistant manager.

The team play their games at Kingsmeadow in Kingston upon Thames, London. In total, the stadium can hold up to 4,850 people.
