Both sides go into the new campaign hoping to challenge for top honours once again, with our early-season meeting always proving a must-watch moment in the WSL season.

Arsenal won the return fixture 1-0 in February 2026, but it wasn’t enough to stop Andrée Jeglertz’s side from pipping the Londoners to the WSL title.
City are also set to face Manchester United at the Etihad on the weekend of Sunday 14 February, with a two-game Etihad pass available to supporters.
This allows you to reserve the same seat for both our Arsenal and United games and benefit from the best-value pricing offer for the two Etihad games.
