After a huge summer for women's football, the English top flight finally returns this weekend.

England's run to the 2023 World Cup final means that there is plenty of anticipation ahead of the new Women's Super League campaign, which kicks off on Sunday as Aston Villa host Manchester United at Villa Park.

Both sides will be desperate to make a fast start as they look to follow up on impressive showings in 2022/23. Man Utd were narrowly beaten to a first WSL title by Chelsea, while fifth place represented a strong season for Villa.

Marc Skinner's side will need to defy the odds if they're to go one better and end their wait for the title, as they head into the new campaign as fourth favourites after losing Alessia Russo to Arsenal in the summer.

The challenge for Villa is to bridge the gap on the WSL's top four, and perhaps even break into it – a win against one of them on the opening day would be the perfect start.
