If you consider yourself a genuine Women's Super League enthusiast, BBC Sport has a fresh challenge to test that knowledge — and this week's edition carries a particularly tasty hook.
The broadcaster's ongoing Who Am I? series returns for its seventh instalment, this time themed around Saturday's WSL fixture between Manchester United and Liverpool, which kicks off at 13:30 BST and is available to watch live on BBC iPlayer.
How the quiz works
The format is straightforward. A hidden WSL player is revealed through a series of clues, and the aim is to correctly identify them using as few hints as possible. Points are awarded in reverse — the earlier you guess correctly, the higher your score. According to BBC Sport, three points is considered a solid result, while four or five is genuinely exceptional.
Each wrong answer unlocks an additional clue, gradually narrowing down the possibilities. That balance of difficulty and gradual revelation is what makes the format compelling for casual and devoted supporters alike.
A fitting subject for this weekend
To mark the Manchester United versus Liverpool women's fixture, the BBC has selected a player who has represented both clubs during her career — a neat touch that adds an extra layer of intrigue to the guessing game. Without giving anything away, it is worth noting that several players have made the switch between the two north-west rivals in recent seasons, reflecting just how much squad movement has shaped the modern WSL.
The quiz was set by BBC Sport's Flora Snelson, and fans are encouraged to return each weekend for a new challenge tied to the WSL's ongoing schedule.
Why quizzes like this matter for the women's game
There is a broader point worth making here. Engagement tools such as this quiz — simple, accessible, tied to live fixtures — are part of how audiences grow around women's football. When the BBC commissions a weekly WSL guessing game alongside live television and radio coverage, it signals something meaningful about where the league sits in the public conversation.
The WSL has expanded considerably in profile over the past decade. Attendances are rising, broadcast deals are more substantial than ever, and international coverage has brought players into mainstream football discussion in a way that was unthinkable even five years ago. A quiz tied to a marquee fixture between two of the country's most recognisable clubs is a small but telling reflection of that growth.
Saturday's fixture in focus
Manchester United versus Liverpool at 13:30 BST on Saturday represents one of the more eagerly anticipated WSL fixtures of the autumn calendar. Both clubs have invested significantly in their women's squads, and matches between them consistently draw strong viewing figures when broadcast live.
Full coverage is available on BBC iPlayer and BBC Radio 5 Live, with live text updates also running throughout the match.
The quiz is available now on the BBC Sport website. Give it a go before kick-off — and see whether you can beat the clues before the match itself provides any hints.
