Southampton FC Women's clash against Portsmouth on Saturday 10th January will be watched by their biggest ever south coast derby crowd, as tickets remain on sale this week.

The highly-anticipated south coast derby has reached 6,000 ticket sales, comfortable beating last season's battle under the lights when 5,666 supporters watched the previous St Mary's derby day.

This season's opening day crowd of 3,896 was already smashed with days still to spare, as the next milestone in the sights is a potential club record league attendance which stands at 7,012 - set against Sunderland in January 2025.
