Emmas Hayes is back! USWNT boss returns to England to watch beloved Chelsea take on Arsenal in WSL showdown

The English manager returns to her homeland for the first time since leaving Chelsea to become the United States women's national team head coach in the summer. Per Sky Sports' Sam Blitz, Hayes will be in attendance at Emirates Stadium on Saturday and watch her beloved Chelsea from the director's box as the reigning WSL champions take on London rivals Arsenal in a crucial clash.

The 47-year-old, who won a host of silverware with the Blues during her time in England including a record seven WSL titles, has started on a positive note in her new project. Under the 47-year-old coach's tutelage, USWNT have remained unbeaten thus far and have won three out of the four matches they have played, taking gold at the Paris Olympics.

After failing to make the Chelsea line-up against Real Madrid in the midweek Champions League encounter due to illness, England international goalkeeper Hannah Hampton is back in Sonia Bompastor's starting eleven to face the Gunners.

The reigning English champions will aim to grab top spot in the WSL table as they eye all three points and will want to extend their winning streak to three games on Saturday.
