Andrée Jeglertz’s side hosted the Londoners at the Etihad Stadium as the division’s top two locked horns in Manchester.
The Blues entered the clash possessing a nine-point lead over Sonia Bompastor’s side and were searching for a 13th successive WSL win after victory over London City Lionesses in our previous outing.
Chelsea, meanwhile, were aiming to bounce back from a defeat to Arsenal - meaning all roads led to an exciting clash at the Etihad.
And although the result wouldn’t decide the destination of the WSL title - three points for City would boost our hopes of winning the championship by the season’s end.
So who came out on top?
