Arsenal vs Chelsea – Women’s FA Cup final: TV channel, live stream, team news & prediction

[ad_1]

Arsenal and Chelsea will meet in the 2021 Women’s FA Cup final at Wembley on Sunday, which falls on the 100th anniversary of the FA banning women’s football from being played at football league grounds – stopping what had been an increasingly popular sport in its tracks for 50 years.

More than 45,000 tickets and counting have been sold for a contest that stands to break the attendance record set when these two clubs last faced off in the final under the arch in 2018.

This is the culmination of the delayed 2020/21 FA Cup, a knock-on effect of the 2019/20 competition being pushed back by the coronavirus pandemic in early 2020. But it is otherwise the first chance to win silverware this season and both sides will be keen to make a statement.

These two clubs are currently first (Arsenal) and second (Chelsea) in the WSL table and it promises to be battle of the two best teams in England and two of the best in all of Europe.
