Chelsea Women will face Arsenal at Stamford Bridge on Sunday, 27 September, in what is billed as the biggest London derby in women's football. Kick-off is scheduled for 4.30pm during the international break for men's fixtures.

The match brings together the two most successful clubs of the WSL era. Chelsea have announced a series of fan engagement activities under a "Blue Day" theme to mark the occasion.

Supporters inside the ground will have access to blue face painting, live music and activities in a Fan Zone at the Tea Bar. A collectable Blue Day patch will also be available for fans attending.

Fans in the West Lower are asked to participate in a mosaic by raising a card placed on their seat as the teams walk out. The club has asked supporters not to swap cards with neighbours in order for the display to work correctly.

A themed countdown to kick-off will run throughout the pre-match period, including crowd camera segments and Chelsea anthem music. Flags will be placed on seats for supporters to wave ahead of the derby.
