Chelsea Women and Arsenal Women renew one of English football’s biggest rivalries on Sunday when Renée Slegers’ side travel to Stamford Bridge.
The two clubs have spent more than a decade competing for major domestic honours, with Women’s Super League title battles, cup finals and European meetings all contributing to a rivalry that has become increasingly difficult to separate.
That is reflected in the overall Chelsea Women vs Arsenal Women head-to-head record.
According to PlaymakerStats’ competitive meeting database, the clubs have met 51 times across recognised competitions.
Remarkably, both sides have won exactly 22 of those matches.
Chelsea Women vs Arsenal Women head-to-head record
| Result | Total |
|---|---|
| Chelsea wins | 22 |
| Draws | 7 |
| Arsenal wins | 22 |
| Total meetings | 51 |
The overall record could therefore swing back in either direction when the sides meet at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.

Chelsea vs Arsenal Women WSL record
Chelsea hold a narrower advantage when only Women’s Super League fixtures are considered.
The same statistical database records 31 WSL meetings between the teams.
| WSL result | Total |
|---|---|
| Chelsea wins | 13 |
| Draws | 7 |
| Arsenal wins | 11 |
| Total WSL meetings | 31 |
That record reflects Chelsea’s strong domestic run during the modern WSL era, although Arsenal have enjoyed several significant recent victories.
Last four Chelsea vs Arsenal Women meetings
The rivalry produced four meetings during the 2025/26 campaign across the WSL and Champions League.
Arsenal 1-1 Chelsea – 8 November 2025
The first league meeting of last season ended level at Emirates Stadium.
Neither side was able to establish a decisive advantage, continuing the fine margins that have regularly defined this fixture.
Chelsea 0-2 Arsenal – 24 January 2026
Arsenal produced one of their strongest domestic performances of the season at Stamford Bridge.
The 2-0 victory ended Chelsea’s long unbeaten home league run against the Gunners and demonstrated Arsenal’s ability to control the fixture away from home.
Chelsea’s own historical preview confirms that Arsenal became the first side since 2018 to win a WSL fixture away to the Blues in this rivalry.
Arsenal 3-1 Chelsea – 24 March 2026
The rivalry then moved into Europe.
Arsenal won the first leg of their Women’s Champions League quarter-final 3-1 at Emirates Stadium, with Stina Blackstenius, Chloe Kelly and Alessia Russo scoring.
It was the first Champions League meeting between the clubs.
Chelsea 1-0 Arsenal – 1 April 2026
Chelsea responded in the second leg with a 1-0 victory at Kingsmeadow.
Arsenal’s first-leg advantage was enough to ensure the Gunners progressed despite the defeat.
Chelsea’s official review of the tie records the two European results alongside Arsenal’s earlier 2-0 WSL win at Stamford Bridge.
