Chelsea will take on Arsenal in a high-voltage Women’s Super League clash on Saturday, January 24 in front of a packed home crowd at Stamford Bridge.
The two sides met in the WSL in November 2025, which ended in a 1-1 draw after a goal from Alyssa Thompson. Speaking of form, both teams have won two of their last five games and now sit second and third in the WSL table respectively, with Chelsea four points ahead and trying to chase down Man City.
Looking at their head-to-head, it’s Chelsea with the slight edge. They’ve won 13 of the 29 meetings between the two sides, Arsenal have won 10, and six have ended in draws. It's proven especially difficult for Arsenal to beat the Blues at home, with Chelsea unbeaten in their last six home games against the Gunners dating back to October 2018.
