Arsenal Women are on a five-match winning streak as they prepare to face Leicester City Women on April 29, 2026, at Emirates Stadium. Leicester City Women are in dire straits, facing relegation after losing eight consecutive matches.
Arsenal currently sits fourth in the Barclays Women’s Super League (WSL) table. They have won all nine previous meetings with Leicester City by an aggregate score of 33 goals to 4. The Gunners scored 15 goals and conceded only 2 in their last five matches.
Leicester City Women find themselves at the bottom of the WSL table, having picked up only nine points this season. Their defense has struggled significantly, shipping three or more goals on eight occasions this season. Coach Rick Passmoor faces mounting pressure as the Foxes look for a turnaround.
Key statistics:
- Arsenal Women have won their last five matches in the WSL.
- Leicester City Women have lost their last eight matches in the WSL.
- Arsenal Women are unbeaten at home in the 2025-26 WSL season.
- Alessia Russo has scored 19 goals this season.
The match will be broadcast live on Sky Sports in the UK, with kick-off scheduled for 19:00 BST. Observers expect Arsenal to continue their strong form, given their historical dominance over Leicester.
The stakes are high for both teams. Arsenal aims for Champions League qualification while Leicester’s survival in the top division hangs in the balance. As one expert noted, “We cannot see any other outcome than an emphatic Arsenal victory.” Leicester’s five-year stay in the top division could very much be coming to an end.
