Brighton are fifth in the Women’s Super League and are just 11 points off of leaders Chelsea.

Durham, meanwhile, are engaged in a close battle in the Championship. They are fourth but are just one point off of leaders Birmingham City.

There are just five points between first and eighth in the second division as things stand.
