Sunday’s clash will mark their sixth encounter with their first meeting dating back to 2016. However, the Blues hold a better position in the head-to-head, unbeaten in their last five WSL trips to Birmingham, keeping a clean sheet in every game.

Since their stumble against Birmingham in January, the visitors have extended their unbeaten run to12 in the WSL, bagging 36 goals and conceding just eight.

Only Fara Williams (4) has registered more assists in the league this season than Chelsea’s Fran Kirby.

Last time out:
