Date for Aston Villa Women v Arsenal set

Arsenal’s visit to Aston Villa in the WSL at Villa Park has now been set for Saturday, 9 May at 12noon. The game was originally scheduled for Sunday, 26 April but needs to be rearranged due to Arsenal’s progression to the semi-finals of the Champions League.

Initially, Sky had provisionally announced that the game would take place on Wednesday, 22 April at 7pm in the event that Arsenal defeated Chelsea and progressed to the Champions League semi-finals. However, with Arsenal’s elimination from the FA Cup, the semi-final weekend of 9/10 May is now free.

With the first leg of the Champions League semi-final against Lyon on 26 April, Arsenal will now have more time to prepare for that game. Both Women’s FA Cup semi-finals will take place on Sunday, 10 May it means Saturday, 9 May was relatively free for broadcast purposes too. Arsenal’s revised schedule for the remainder of the season is now set.
