Two Manchester United Women's fixtures selected for live TV next month

Two of Manchester United's fixtures have been selected for broadcast in rounds 14 and 15 of the Barclays Women's Super League next month.

Marc Skinner's side have three games in March, with two home games - one at Old Trafford - and an away trip to Chelsea. At the beginning of the month, the meeting against Leicester City at home on Sunday, March 5 will be broadcast live on the BBC.

A week later, their meeting with title rivals Chelsea will also be shown by the BBC. The Blues' game against Brighton and Arsenal's meeting with Reading are the selections for Sky Sports.

All remaining WSL games, including United's home game against West Ham on March 25, will be shown on the FA Player.

Skinner's side are currently top of the table, above Chelsea on goal difference. Arsenal, who are three points behind in third, have a game in hand over their rivals.

In January, United comfortably beat Liverpool 6-0 in the league before they secured a narrow 1-0 win over Reading away from home. In the FA Cup last weekend, they beat Sunderland 2-1 away to book their place in the next round.

Later this month, the Manchester club will come up against Championship opposition Durham for the second time this season when they face off in the fifth round of the FA Cup.

WSL broadcast selections in March:

  • Manchester United vs Leicester City on Sunday, March 5 - BBC
  • Chelsea vs Brighton on Sunday, March 5 - Sky Sports
  • Chelsea vs Manchester United on Sunday, March 12 - BBC
  • Arsenal vs Reading on Sunday, March 12 - Sky Sports
