Managed by Emma Hayes, the Blues have also won five doubles and in the 2020/21 season celebrated the treble by winning the WSL title, the FA Cup and the League Cup.
The success of Chelsea Women, added to the recent achievements of the Lionesses, means that more and more people are now attending live matches. In this article, we will help you find out how to watch one of the best teams in Women's football.

What is Chelsea Women's record attendance?
Attendances at Women's matches have skyrocketed in recent years, mostly due to the success of the England Women's team and the fact that some people prefer the more laid-back atmosphere at WSL games.
The highest attendance achieved by Chelsea was 4,670 at Kingsmeadow which was set on 28th April 2019 in a Champions League semi-final against Lyon. The Blues' attendance record at Stamford Bridge is 38,350 which came in Chelsea Women's first ever match at Stamford Bridge against Tottenham Hotspur.
Attendance records at women's football matches in England, Mexico, Spain, Brazil, Peru, Germany and Chile have all been beaten in the last five years.
Chelsea were the visitors when 59,042 people turned up at the Emirates Stadium to see Arsenal Women face Emma Hayes' side, and this remains the second-highest ever WSL attendance.
How to watch Chelsea Women on TV in the UK?
Sky Sports recently announced that they will be broadcasting 44 live WSL games from the 2024-2025 season.
There are a total of 264 Women's Super League matches to be played across the season, which means around 17% of those will be shown live on Sky Sports.
The BBC have also agreed a deal with the WSL to broadcast twenty-two matches from next season.
Alternatively, if you go to The FA's TV player website, you will be able to see your team play every single week of the season. This option is a long-running deal from the FA in a bid to increase the visibility of the women's game.
