This season’s best attack face up against the worst defence in this weekends Women’s Super League (WSL) action as Chelsea F.C. come to Ashton Gate.
Bristol City come up against league leaders Chelsea at 2pm this Sunday.
Chelsea have netted 29 times so far this season, while Bristol City have already conceded 23 goals.
Chelsea are currently top of the league with 22 points, edging out Arsenal on goal difference. Bristol City are currently second from bottom above only West Ham.
Chelsea have been in great form so far this season, winning seven out of nine games, thanks in part to Lauren James excellent form following her breakout World Cup performances earlier this summer.
James is joint second top scorer so far, having netted 6 goals in 8 appearances already in 2023/24 – her team mate Aggie Beever-Jones and Bristol City’s Amalie Thestrup trail just behind with 5 goals each.
Bristol City have been in shaky form this season, winning only once in nine games this season to bottom of the league West Ham on bonfire night.
Despite their poor form this season, the Bristol City have been smashing records this season – breaking their attendance record twice already this season.
It’s not all been sunshine for Emma Haye’s Chelsea this season – they lost for the first time this season 4-1 away to rival title-contenders Arsenal last weekend in a points levelling contest.
Having lost to Reading on penalties in the FA cup on Wednesday, Bristol City will look to bounce back and get a result against the league leaders.
This weekend will be a festive one at Ashton Gate as donations will be collected for 3 charities. For those attending games at the stadium this season can find information about what donations are requested here.
We will be collecting for @nbsgfoodbank pre-match on Sunday, continuing our support of the local community. We would love all our supporters to join us with donations to extend our outreach! Thank you and see you there❤️ https://t.co/yppDEBlj8v
