How to watch Palace Women's WSL debut at Spurs
Crystal Palace are set to make their historic debut in the Barclays Women’s Super League on Sunday (22nd September), as they travel to Women’s FA Cup finalists, Tottenham Hotspur.
Sunday’s 14:00 BST clash at Brisbane Road marks the first game of the new WSL season for both teams.
This is your chance to witness history, as head coach Laura Kaminski leads Palace out into the topflight for the first time.
Palace will look to get off to a winning start in London, and here are the ways you can follow the action this Sunday!
Is the match being broadcast?
The game this Sunday (22 September) kicks off at 14:00 BST at Brisbane Road, and will be broadcast live on the WSL YouTube channel in the UK (embedded above).
In the WSL this season, matches will be shown on both BBC Sport and Sky Sports, the two primary broadcast partners of the league.
Every single match which is not shown across these platforms this season will be available to live stream via the WSL YouTube channel.

The Opposition
Last season’s Women’s FA Cup finalists will prove to be a tough first test for Palace.
Manager Robert Vilahamn took over Spurs in July 2023 and enjoyed a productive first season at the club, finishing in sixth place.
Spurs gained promotion to the WSL for the first time in 2019, and have remained in the league ever since.
Watch out for their top scorer last season Martha Thomas, and recently-capped Lioness, Jessica Naz.
Like Palace, Spurs have also had a busy summer transfer window signing seven players, including Real Madrid duo Maite Oroz and Hayley Raso.
