Aston Villa v Manchester United – Sunday, 12pm
View all available markets at William Hill
- Aston Villa are unbeaten in three league games, collecting seven points with victories over Liverpool and Everton. Interim boss Brian Sørensen then guided Villa to a 1-1 draw at Arsenal last weekend. However, the hosts have won only one of their three home league matches this season, with William Hill offering 7/2 for another victory.
- Manchester United are unbeaten in six WSL matches (W3, D3) under head coach Eva Olid. However, they’ve won only once in four away league fixtures this season. The Red Devils have also won nine of their previous 12 WSL meetings with Aston Villa, with the visitors available at 6/10 with William Hill to extend that impressive record.

- Liverpool’s disappointing 4-1 defeat at West Ham last weekend extended their WSL winless run to four matches (D1, L3). Gareth Taylor’s side have conceded 14 goals in eight league fixtures, although they remain unbeaten at home (W1, D2). The Reds can be backed at 11/5 with William Hill to return to winning ways.
- Arsenal sit seventh in the WSL after collecting just ten points from their opening eight fixtures (W2, D4, L2). Renée Slegers’ side have scored only eight league goals, although they’ve won five consecutive meetings with Liverpool in this competition. William Hill offer 19/20 for the visitors to secure another victory over the Reds.

- Crystal Palace have gone seven WSL games without a victory (D3, L4) since beating Everton on the opening weekend.

However, the Eagles will fancy their chances against bottom-placed Charlton, with William Hill offering 8/11 for a home victory.
- Charlton remain without a point following their first eight WSL fixtures, scoring just three goals and conceding 25. Karen Hills’ side suffered a heavy 6-0 defeat against Chelsea last weekend.
