Previous meeting

It was a narrow defeat last time we faced Arsenal, with the Gunners coming out on top 1-0.

Olivia Smith was the only goalscorer of the game, putting the hosts ahead at the Emirates Stadium after just 17 minutes.

But that loss is still, in fact, the last time City tasted defeat in any competition.

Last time out

City remain unbeaten in the UEFA Women’s Champions League.

We recorded another stalemate, this time a 1-1 draw with Real Madrid at the Joie Stadium on Thursday evening as we welcomed the return of European nights to our home.

Linda Caicedo put the hosts ahead in the first half but Bunny Shaw’s superb second half strike secured an important point in the League Phase and extended our unbeaten run in all competitions to six.

TV listings

The game is currently available to view in the UK on Sky Sports Main Event, Sky Sports Premier League, Sky Go, Sky Ultra HD and Now TV.
