Chelsea has the chance to clinch a sixth straight Women's Super League title on
Wednesday.
With second-place Arsenal losing 5-2 at Aston Villa, Chelsea --- the leader by
six points --- can move into an unassailable advantage with two games remaining
by avoiding defeat at Manchester United in a match kicking off at 1915 GMT.
Chelsea has already won the League Cup this season and has advanced to the FA
Cup final, where the team will face Manchester United at Wembley Stadium on May
18. It lost to Barcelona in the Women's Champions League semifinals.
Chelsea also completed the Premier League-FA Cup-League Cup treble in the
2020-21 season.
Arsenal, which was coming off a 4-1 victory over Lyon to reach the Champions
League final on Sunday, was the last team other than Chelsea to win the Super
League --- in 2019.
