Manchester United earned their first Women's Super League win of the season with a 2-1 victory over West Ham at Leigh Sports Village. Elisabeth Terland headed in Anna Sandberg's delivery inside 10 minutes, and Viviane Asseyi later converted a penalty after Sandberg tripped her. Despite West Ham's goalkeeper Constance Picaud making several saves, including tipping Hanna Lundkvist's header over the bar, United secured the points.

Liverpool finally broke their Anfield hoodoo against Everton, securing a 2-0 Merseyside derby win. Beata Olsson's looping header gave Liverpool the lead in the fourth minute. Though Ruby Mace and Cornelia Kapocs denied Liverpool a second goal initially, Kapocs swept home the winner with under five minutes remaining. This marked Liverpool's first WSL victory at Anfield against Everton.

Tottenham surged to a 4-0 win over Aston Villa to stay within two points of league leaders Manchester City. Victoria Pelova opened the scoring in the 54th minute, before doubling the lead with a curling effort. Caitlin Dijkstra headed in off the back post, and Cathinka Tandberg finished on the rebound, completing the scoring.

The results see Liverpool and Tottenham applying pressure at the top of the table, while Manchester United collect their first points of the 2026/27 campaign.
