After big wins for Arsenal and Manchester City on Friday evening, the rest of the WSL sides are in action on Sunday.
Here’s what happened.
Everton battle back to earn Palace draw
Scorers:Â Riley 1′; Hayashi 72′
A second half comeback from Everton earned them a 1-1 draw away at Crystal Palace.
Crystal Palace were ahead after just 30 seconds when Everton’s Katja Snoeijs was inexplicably running back towards goal with the ball. Palace pounced on that error, allowing Indiah-Page Riley to deliver a simple finish.
Into the second half and Everton pulled one back when an inch-perfect cross from Veatriki Sarri was met by the head of Honoka Hayashi.
That was Everton’s first WSL goal of the season, not including own goals.
The Toffees remain without a league win in the current campaign, while Crystal Palace are yet to win at home.
West Ham v Leicester
Manchester United v Aston Villa

Clinical Chelsea sink Liverpool
Scorers: RamÃrez 37′, Reiten 42′, Beever-Jones 90′
Chelsea showed their professionalism as they defeated Liverpool by a 3-0 scoreline in St. Helens.
A hard-working Liverpool side were finally breached by Chelsea just before half-time, when a shot from Johanna Rytting Kaneryd thundered off the underside of the crossbar, and after scramble around the goal, Mayra RamÃrez netted a rebound from close range.
Goalkeeper Rachel Laws was alive to the danger of RamÃrez as she rushed out of her box to try and stop her striking again, but that left her miles off her line as the ball fell to Guro Reiten who shot into the empty net from distance.
Liverpool once again kept things tight in the second half, but with the game almost over, Chelsea breached their defence as RamÃrez steamed forward on the wing, with Aggie Beever-Jones able to tap home the finish.
There is Champions League action to look forward to in midweek, with Arsenal travelling to Juventus, Man City at home to Hammarby and Chelsea away at Celtic.
