Women’s Super League champions Chelsea will host Aston Villa on the opening weekend of the new season as the Sonia Bompastor era gets under way.

Chelsea, the seven-time champions, will once again be the team to beat but Manchester City will be out for revenge after losing last season’s title on goal difference.

FA Cup holders Manchester United take on West Ham United, while Leicester City travel to Liverpool.

Crystal Palace visit FA Cup final runners-up Tottenham, while Brighton host Everton.
