Manchester United visit postponed

From the official Chelsea FC website:

We regret to inform supporters that our Barclays Women’s Super League fixture against Manchester United at Kingsmeadow on Sunday 6 October has been postponed.

Upon the release of the fixture schedule for our forthcoming UEFA Women’s Champions League group stage campaign, we are due to host Real Madrid at Stamford Bridge for matchday one on Tuesday 8 October.

In light of the proximity between the two fixtures, the club raised its concerns regarding player welfare with the relevant parties. Numerous discussions have since taken place in an attempt to find an amicable solution to this scheduling conflict between the league and UEFA.

Despite our best efforts to seek alternative options which would allow us to play both matches safely, these have been unsuccessful.

It is therefore with sincere regret that we are left with no other option than to confirm the postponement of next weekend’s WSL fixture.

We are extremely disappointed with the outcome but wish to reiterate that player welfare and the impact on our supporters are of the utmost importance to us.

Details of the rearranged fixture with Manchester United will be communicated to supporters once confirmed, along with an update regarding ticket information.

Supporters who purchased match tickets can claim a refund up until 48 hours prior to the new match date. Refund can be requested here.
