Liverpool reveal women's Merseyside derby will be held at Anfield for just the second time in history, while champions Chelsea begin their season at Stamford Bridge as WSL clubs look to capitalise on interest in Lionesses' run to Euro 2022 final

The Women's Super League looks set to capitalise on the success of the Lionesses' remarkable run to the Euro 2022 final with two marquee matches announced.

Chelsea will open their title defence at Stamford Bridge on September 11, while Liverpool will celebrate their promotion to the top flight with a return of the Merseyside derby to Anfield on September 25.

It will mark the first time since November 2019 that the Reds have played a WSL contest at the stadium after attracting more than 23,000 for the last outing, when Lucy Graham netted the winner in Everton's 1-0 win.
