Arsenal Women have released a statement regarding the postponement of Saturday's match with Aston Villa Women. 

............

Saturday's Barclays FA Women's Super League fixture against Aston Villa Women has been postponed due to health and safety concerns.

Although initially all of our first-team players tested negative on return from the Christmas break, one player has subsequently tested positive for Covid this week.

As a result, several first team players are now observing a period of self-isolation as a precaution in accordance with FA and UK Government protocol.

This fixture will be rescheduled and a new date will be announced in due course.
