Everton Women Eye Top Half WSL Spot Against Chelsea
26 Apr
Summary
- Megan Finnigan urges teammates to secure top-half WSL standing.
- Chelsea aims to secure Champions League spot despite recent form.
- Everton seeks revenge after a controversial loss to Chelsea previously.
Everton Women's captain Megan Finnigan has called on her teammates to cement their place in the top half of the WSL table. The team will be in attendance at Goodison Park to support the Blues as they take on champions Chelsea. Finnigan will be joined on the sidelines by suspended players and those recovering from injury, but she is urging whoever starts to give their all.
Meanwhile, Chelsea's manager Sonia Bompastor remains confident of securing a Champions League spot. However, they are aware of Manchester United and Arsenal closing in. Chelsea's season has been below par, with Arsenal's exit being a significant blow. Despite this, they have won the League Cup for the fourth time and still have the FA Cup in their sights.
The previous meeting between these two sides saw Everton secure an unlikely win, ending Chelsea's 18-month unbeaten WSL record. Chelsea will be seeking revenge, recalling a 5-0 victory at Goodison Park last season and a subsequent FA Cup win. A more recent, controversial match saw Chelsea secure a late victory, which irked the Everton team.
