The form

The Blues are on a five-match winning run in all competitions, with our last defeat coming on February 1.

Our 2-1 victory over Brighton last night came hot off the heels of Chelsea lifting the 2025/26 Women's League Cup following Sunday's 2-1 win over Manchester United.

London City Lionesses, who have been led by Spanish head coach Eder Maestre since January, are currently seventh in the WSL table.

The Lionesses lost 2-0 to Arsenal on Sunday and prior to the international break had drawn 2-2 with the Gunners' north London rivals Tottenham Hotspur.

There had been a 2-1 loss at Manchester United and 1-0 defeat at home to Everton prior to that, with their last victory coming on February 1 against Brighton, with the game also finishing 2-1.

Recent head-to-head

The Blues faced London City in cup action back in 2015 and again in 2021, but the Lionesses have undergone major changes on and off the pitch since then.

Previously known as the Millwall Lionesses, the side broke away to become an independent women’s team in 2019, becoming the London City Lionesses, and in late-2023 American businesswoman Michelle Kang successfully purchased the club, adding London City to her portfolio of women’s football clubs, which also includes OL Lyonnes in France and Washington Spirit in the USA.

Their promotion in the summer saw us face London City in the WSL for the first time back in November 2025 and goals from Ellie Carpenter and Sam Kerr - both currently away on international duty at the Women's Asian Cup - saw us record a 2-0 win.
