The FA have published the 2018/19 season fixtures, which reveal Yeovil facing London Bees at The Hive in the Continental Tyres Cup on 19th August, before welcoming Crystal Palace to Dorchester Town in the same competition on 26th August.

They then travel to top four side Reading Women in the Women’s Super League opener on 9th September, before facing Tottenham Hotspur back in Continental Tyres Cup action, also at Dorchester, and then meet last season’s SSE FA Women’s Cup runners up Arsenal, in a midweek game under the lights at The Avenue Stadium.

The Avenue Stadium, which has been named Yeovil’s new home ground for the upcoming season, will host all league and cup matches, in an effort to ensure stability and continuity of fixtures for fans, sponsors and broadcasters. With that in mind, all Sunday scheduled fixtures will kick off at 3.00pm (subject to change if being broadcast live on BT Sport or BBC) and all midweek home games scheduled on Wednesdays with a 7.45pm kick off.
