Sky Sports will show up to 44 Women’s Super League matches in the 2024/25 season – more than any other broadcaster – extending the partnership with the league.
Sky Sports first secured the rights to the WSL in 2021, signing a three-year deal alongside the BBC, and has now renewed terms for next season.
The games will be available to Sky Sports customers and streamed on Sky Sports with NOW.
This season has seen one of the most exciting title races in recent memory. Manchester City currently have a three-point lead over Chelsea, but have played a game more.
The excitement continues this week on Sky Sports, with Arsenal vs Bristol City on Sunday (kick-off 6.45pm) before Chelsea host Aston Villa on Wednesday (kick-off 7pm).
