Leicester City Women will welcome defending champions Chelsea Women to the King Power Stadium for a Women's Super League matchday 15 fixture on Sunday.
The hosts will be looking to build on their comfortable 5-2 home win over Bristol City a fortnight ago. They went behind to Ffion Morgan's 20th-minute strike but quickly rallied through Yuka Momiki and Saori Takarada to take a lead into the break. Janice Cayman, Jutta Rantala and Denny Draper all scored second-half goals to complete the rout.
Chelsea, meanwhile, fell to a 1-0 defeat at home to Manchester City in a top-of-the-table clash. Khadija Shaw's 14th-minute strike proved to be the difference between the two sides.
Despite the defeat, the Blues remain at the summit of the standings, having garnered 34 points from 14 games. They are joint-level with Manchester City. Leicester City are seventh with 16 points to their name.
