Time to plan your year: Reds league and cup fixtures for 2018/19 revealed

Earlier today Liverpool’s fixtures for the 2018/19 FA Women’s Super League and group games for the Continental Cup were revealed.

The Reds start with a home cup game against newly formed Manchester United Women on Sunday 19 August before beginning their league campaign away at Arsenal Women following the international break on Sunday 9 September.

That opener against Manchester United will likely draw widespread media attention and the venue for the game remains to be announced – keep an eye on official platforms for any announcements regarding stadiums and season tickets etc.

For me, the first fixture I look for is the Merseyside derby and Liverpool supporters are in for a treat with two ties against the Blues inside a week in December; on Sunday 2nd we face Everton at Marine in the league and four days later get to beat them all over again at home – wherever that may be – on Thursday 6th in the Continental Cup. Merry Christmas, Everton!

The home league derby comes right at the end of the season, the final game of the campaign on Sunday 12 May.

Other notable fixtures for the Reds include first ever games against Brighton and Hove Albion (Sunday 23rd September) and West Ham (away on Sunday 21 October).
