Arsenal Women can claim a second straight win when they travel to Bristol City Women in their next WSL game. Coming into this game, hosts Bristol are bottom of the league standings and Arsenal are seventh. It has been a tough start to the campaign for newly promoted Bristol after spending two seasons in the second tier. They haven't managed a point yet, three games into the new season. Bristol have also been eliminated from the League Cup, further complicating their season. They come into this game straight from their biggest loss of the season, a 5-0 defeat against Manchester City. While they failed to score in one of their four matches this season, Bristol haven't managed a clean sheet. In each of their three league games, they conceded at least three goals.

Arsenal have a strong run against Bristol City; in 36 meetings, they only lost once. Five of those meetings ended in draws and Arsenal come into this one with seven straight wins over Bristol. This is therefore a good chance for the visitors to start stabilizing their season. Arsenal are coming from their first win in four matches, having beaten Aston Villa 2-1. The one concern for Arsenal coming into this game will be in defence; they have just one clean sheet in five matches. In their last four games, Arsenal haven't managed a clean sheet, and they conceded more than once in two. They’ve failed to score once in the last five matches. Two of their last four matches have over 3.5 goals and they’ll be eyeing a first away win here.
