Three more Women’s Super League matches hit England on Sunday, with a tilt between mighty Chelsea and relegation-threatened Aston Villa (live at 9:30 am ET on NBCSN and online via NBCSports.com) the highlight of the day.
Sunday begins with sixth-place Brighton trying to close ground on Everton at 7:30am ET, the Toffees four points ahead of the host Seagulls to enter the weekend.
Finally, 11am ET sees ninth-place Birmingham City’s attempt to grow distance between itself and 11th-place Bristol City, who is only one point ahead of relegation. Twelfth-place West Ham has a match-in-hand on the Robins and is just one point behind Bristol City and three behind Birmingham City.
