Manchester United started the campaign with back-to-back wins, the second coming from an early goal away to Everton. Grace Clinton took just four minutes to score what proved to be the decisive goal.

Arsenal took all three points at Leicester City, where they scored the only goal. The Gunners went in front 10 minutes into the second half when Alessia Russo set up Frida Maanum for a close-range finish.

West Ham equalized late on to earn a draw against Liverpool. Olivia Smith gave the Reds a lead in the seventh minute assisted by Sophie Roman Haug and the advantage was maintained until the 85th minute when Riko Ueki equalised.

Aston Villa overturned Tottenham’s lead, only to be pegged back in stoppage time by an equalizer from Beth England. Spurs were awarded a penalty midway through the first half when Drew Spence was fouled in the area by Paula Tomás and Eveliina Summanen stepped in to convert. Rachel Daly set up Adriana Leon to equalize for Villa before heading home a Lucy Parker cross. But on 96 minutes, England nodded home a delivery from Amanda Nilden.
