Watch 2025/26 Women's Super League live streams as the likes of Arsenal and Manchester City aim to stop Chelsea defending their title once again. Below we have all the information on how to watch the WSL 2025/26 season from anywhere in the world with details on worldwide TV channels, broadcasters and free live streams on TV screens, laptops, tablets and mobiles.
Last season, the question was how Chelsea would begin the post-Emma Hayes era. The answer was a comprehensive title win, as Sonia Bompastor led the Blues to a fourth WSL title in a row. Arsenal, fresh from their Champions League triumph, will believe they can push their London rivals all the way this time. Man City can never be disregarded either.
All the title contenders boast players who were part of the Lionesses' defence of their Euros title, including Lucy Bronze at Chelsea, and Leah Williamson and Chloe Kelly at Arsenal. Breakout star Michelle Agyemang has returned to Brighton on loan from the Gunners.
Things are likely to be interesting at the bottom of the table too. From this season, two sides will be relegated. Newly promoted London City Lionesses, the first independent team in the league, have invested heavily and will fancy their chances of staying up. The same cannot be said of Spurs who, having finished second from bottom last season, have not bolstered their squad over the summer. Leicester and West Ham will also be looking over their shoulders.
Read on to find out how you can watch all of the Women's Super League live streams in 2025/26, possibly for free.
