Chelsea Women will attempt to clinch a fifth consecutive Women's Super League title when they face Manchester United Women in Saturday's clash at Old Trafford.
The hosts are sitting top of the table on goal difference, while Man United will enter the final matchday in fifth place.
Match preview
Man United will be in a celebratory mood after they thrashed Tottenham Hotspur 4-0 in last Sunday's FA Cup final to clinch their first major trophy.
Ella Toone and Rachel Williams grabbed a goal apiece to give Man United a two-goal lead, before Lucia Garcia netted a brace to round off a memorable day for the club.
While they enjoyed success in the FA Cup, the Red Devils have struggled to find consistency in the WSL, with their 21 league matches producing 10 wins, five draws and six defeats.
After losing 1-0 to Liverpool in their previous league outing, Man United are sitting in fifth place and three points adrift of the Merseyside club in fourth position.
The Red Devils may be 17 points adrift of Saturday's opponents, but they will fancy their chances of beating the Blues after winning seven of their last eight competitive home matches, including a 2-1 win over Chelsea in last month's semi-final.
Chelsea's FA Cup defeat to Man United took place in a five-game period where they lost in the League Cup final and the Champions League semi-finals.
They then went on to lose 3-2 in an away league game against Liverpool, leaving them to contemplate the prospect of finishing Emma Hayes's final season without a trophy.
While that is still a possibility, Chelsea have claimed back-to-back wins over Bristol City and Tottenham Hotspur to take advantage of Man City's recent defeat to Arsenal.
After thrashing the Robins 8-0, the Blues went on to record a narrow 1-0 win in Wednesday's clash with Spurs thanks to a first-half effort from Maika Hamano.
Chelsea are now sitting top of the table on 52 points and a goal difference of +47, while the Citizens are sitting in second place with the same points tally and a goal difference of +45.
As a result, the Blues will retain the WSL trophy even if they equal Man City's result against Aston Villa, while maintaining their goal difference advantage.
