Arsenal and Everton will play their outstanding game in hand in the WSL this week, with the Gunners in particular hoping to get a win that will aid their top three ambitions.
Jonas Eidevall guided his team to a much-needed 4-0 win over Brighton last Wednesday and victory against the Toffees would open a welcome three-point cushion over fourth place Manchester City.
Everton, meanwhile, have little but pride left to play for, not least after they were thrashed 7-0 by Chelsea for a worst defeat of the season last time out. The sixth-place side are almost assured of a top half finish but will find it tough to catch Aston Villa ahead of them.

Caitlin Foord, Steph Catley and Gio Queiroz should all be in the squad again, having each come off the bench against Brighton a week ago. But the Gunners are without Lina Hurtig until the weekend.
Beth Mead, Vivianne Miedema, Kim Little, Leah Williamson and Laura Wienroither are all out.
Arsenal won the reverse fixture earlier this season, albeit only 1-0, while Everton have taken just one point from a possible 18 in games against the WSL top four so far.
The 7-0 scoreline against Chelsea was unusually large for the Toffees to lose by, having not conceded more than three times in any other league game this season, but it seems unlikely that an Arsenal side with motivation to finish the season strongly won’t get the win.
Prediction: Everton 0-1 Arsenal
