Chelsea come into this showpiece final hoping to complete a league and cup double, while City will be hoping to follow up their qualification for next season's Champions League with some silverware.
Chelsea boss Emma Hayes will be hoping for a little less drama today, following their tense win over Manchester United that sealed the Women’s Super League title at Arsenal’s expense on the final day of the season last weekend. The Londoners had a tough route to today's final, having had to beat WSL sides Aston Villa, Leicester and Birmingham, before edging past Arsenal in the semis.
Gareth Taylor’s City will have their eye on a double of their own, having beaten Chelsea 3-1 in the Continental Cup final back in March. There had been calls for Taylor's sacking earlier in the season following an early poor run of form in the league, but the Citizens have had a major turn around in the second half of the season which saw them finish third. A win here will further vindicate the club's decision to stick with their manager.
