As part of a bumper broadcasting deal that starts in 2025/26, every single game is available – either on TV and online – and the WSL YouTube remains the home of free-to-watch top-flight football.

With the popularity of the women's game continuing to skyrocket, thanks in no small part to the success of the Lionesses, the offering of free WSL action is huge.

Sunday's offering on YouTube sees seventh-place Brighton take on eighth-place Aston Villa and surging Spurs face Everton.

The schedule may change as the 2025/26 campaign progresses, but for now, check out the list of matches you'll be able to savour for free in 2025/26.

RadioTimes.com brings you the complete guide to WSL football live on YouTube.
