The full picture

Chelsea Women face Charlton Athletic in the Women’s Super League, having just played AS Roma in Europe four days prior. Chelsea have reclaimed top spot with six consecutive wins, while Charlton are still searching for their first points. The match is scheduled for Sunday, November 1, 2026, at The Valley in London. Charlton have lost all seven of their opening league matches.

Charlton have struggled in their return to the top flight, scoring just three goals and conceding 19 in their first seven matches. They recently lost 1-0 to Birmingham City and 2-1 to West Ham in the Women’s League Cup. Charlton have several injury concerns, including Charlotte Newsham, Hawa Cissoko, and Linda Líf Boama, with defender Elisha N’Dow also a doubt.

Chelsea are coming off a 2-0 win against AS Roma, with goals from Ellie Carpenter and Kadeisha Buchanan. Manager Sonia Bompastor made effective substitutions, and Erin Cuthbert made her first start of the season. Lexi Potter is unlikely to feature due to a knee injury, while Naomi Girma remains unavailable with a calf injury.
