Palace Women face fixture shake-up as TV picks land
Jo Potter and her Crystal Palace side have made a dream start to the Women’s Super League campaign, but attention now turns to a hectic schedule and some key alterations to the calendar.
The club kicked off Matchweek 1 in style with a gritty 1-0 win at home courtesy of a Lexi Lloyd-Smith strike against Everton Women. Now, the squad builds up momentum for a trip to Arsenal this Sunday (13th September) before returning home to host Tottenham Hotspur at Selhurst Park a week later.
However, supporters planning their autumn diaries need to take note of two key time changes. Broadcast selections for Matchweeks 5 through 8 have forced a couple of early kick-offs for Palace’s home matches in October.
The club’s clash against West Ham on Sunday, 18th October, and the subsequent London derby against Chelsea on Sunday, 25th October, will both now get underway at 12:00pm (BST).

Jo Potter’s side have proven they can mix it with the division’s best right out of the blocks, but maintaining that momentum will demand full focus as the television cameras descend. With a blockbuster trip to the Emirates up next and some early-morning starts locked in for October, the Eagles are diving headfirst into a defining stretch of the campaign.
