The 2023/24 women's football season has seen numerous records broken - Arsenal have sold out the Emirates on numerous occasions, and England Women frequently play in front of sell-out crowds. Now, it’s Crystal Palace’s turn to make history.
On Sunday, Laura Kaminski's Eagles host Watford at Selhurst Park in front of what is expected to be a record crowd. This is the third time this season that the side has played in SE25, with Palace setting their record attendance earlier on this campaign against Southampton. Ticket sales for Sunday's game have already exceeded the 4,451 that were sold for that game.
The Barclays Women's Championship run in sees Palace enthralled in a nail-biting title race with league leaders Sunderland, with just a sole point separating the two sides with just five games to play. Crucially, Palace have a game in hand over the Black Cats.
Last time out at Selhurst Park, just ten days ago, Palace secured their first ever win in the stadium, and they'll be hoping for more of the same on Sunday as they continue to bid for promotion to the Women's Super League.
