Women's Super League clubs look to hold more games in men's stadiums after 47,000 fans watched the North London derby at the Emirates, with close to 90,000 at matches across the weekend

Women’s Super League clubs are planning to hold more matches at men’s stadiums this season after record crowds made for the most attended weekend in the competition’s history.

A total of 89,381 people watched matches in stadiums, with 47,367 inside the Emirates for the north London derby on Saturday.

Arsenal have already committed to hosting six games at their men’s ground this season but they could hold more should they progress to the latter stages of the Champions League.
