Chelsea returned to the summit on goal difference on Wednesday night with a 3-0 win over Aston Villa but Taylor바카라™s team will play twice before the current champions get the chance to add to their 46-point tally.

While Chelsea switch their attention to Champions League semi-final action with Barcelona over the next two weekends, City host West Ham on Sunday before they travel to Bristol City on April 28 with the aim of being six points clear going into May.

Taylor told a press conference: 바카라śWednesday night changed things around a little bit again but of course we play now two games before Chelsea play again, so it is an important moment for us to step up and do our bit.

바카라śThat is all we will do. Attack the next game, give it our very best and do what we can.

바카라śYeah, I바카라™m excited about this next period and think it is a great opportunity for us.

바카라śIf we had looked at that at the beginning of the season, knowing that most of the time the WSL goes to the final game, I think it is a fantastic position for us to be in.

바카라śWe바카라™ve worked so hard and we don바카라™t want to lose that opportunity. We want to continue with it and take it all the way.바카라ť

City will have first-choice Khiara Keating in goal after she was able to shake off the knee issue which forced her to leave England national team duty earlier this month.

A Women바카라™s FA Cup final dress rehearsal will also take place on Sunday when Manchester United host Tottenham.

Grace Clinton will be a notable absentee due to the terms of her loan at Spurs from United and she will also be unavailable at Wembley on May 12.

Tottenham head coach Robert Vilahamn has made no secret of his desire to keep the England international beyond this season-long loan but his opposite number Marc Skinner talked up his future hopes for Clinton in a United shirt.

Skinner said: 바카라śWhen we signed Grace two seasons ago, it was that we saw this level of potential for sure.

바카라śIt바카라™s really interesting talking to people around her and so on, there is still loads more we can give to her and we can keep adding to her.

바카라śBut I can바카라™t stress this enough, the whole reason she went on loan was to be able to do that.

바카라śWe couldn바카라™t give her the minutes that needed her to be able to do that but she has now proven she is in that space, she has had that exposure and I look forward to welcoming her back to do that for Manchester United.바카라ť

Sunday바카라™s other fixture will see third-placed Arsenal host Leicester with the Gunners eager to close the gap on Chelsea, which stands at six points with four fixtures left to play.
