What to watch on SWPL Sunday
Decisive derbyIt's the final Edinburgh derby of the season on Sunday and the last chance for either Hearts or Hibs to take the final bragging rights of the season. Not only is it a massive match for title chasing Hibs, who risk slipping off the top of the SWPL if they don't win, but also for Hearts if they want any chance of challenging for a Champions League spot for next season. Hearts were winners last time out at Meadowbank and Eva Olid's side have actually won three out of the last four meetings between the sides in all competitions - including knocking their rivals out of the Scottish Cup in December. Expect all the drama at Oriam on Sunday. Big one at the bottomThere's another huge contest at the other end of the table as relegation-threatened Montrose host fellow strugglers Spartans. There's three points between the sides but goal difference favours Spartans so while a win for Craig Feroz's side won't move them out of the relegation zone, it'll put them in a much more favourable position going into the final three games of the season. Spartans have come out on top in all three meetings between the sides this season and have scored nine goals but the last time these two met, back in March, Jack Beesley's side had to come from two goals down to overcome Montrose.Lots at stake at Links Park on Sunday.

Chelsea vs LAFC: Fifa Club World Cup team news and predicted lineups
Delap hoping to make an instant impact at the Club World Cup (Picture: Getty) A host of new Chelsea faces are in contention to make their debuts when the Blues begin their Fifa Club World Cup campaign against Los Angeles FC. Enzo Maresca's first season in charge at Stamford Bridge ended with Champions League qualification and a Europa Conference League triumph. In this revamped competition taking place across the United States, the Blues will look to add more silverware with their new additions desperate to make an instant impact. Chelsea have named a strong squad including Liam Delap, Mamadou Sarr and Dario Essugo who be looking to immediately impress Maresca. Andrey Santos, fresh from his excellent loan spell at Strasbourg last season, is also with the squad. Get personalised updates on Chelsea every day Wake up to find news on your club in your inbox every morning with Metro's Football Newsletter. Sign up to our newsletter and then select your team in the link we'll send you so we can get football news tailored to you. Delap, signed for £30million from Ipswich Town, will hope to be given the nod ahead of Nicolas Jackson, who played 82 minutes in Senegal's 3-1 win over England on Tuesday night. Levi Colwill and Trevoh Chalonah played the full 90 that night. It is difficult to guess how Maresca might rotate his squad, if at all, over the coming weeks but Noni Madueke, Enzo Fernandez and Marc Cucurella are among the others who could be considered for a rest after recent international obligations. New Chelsea signing Dario Essugo could also make his debut (Picture: Getty Images) But Maresca will be determined to get his side off to the best possible start in a competition he is determined to win. With the exception of Wesley Fofana is recovering from injury, the major names left out of the squad are very unlikely to be part of Maresca's plans next season. Joao Felix, Raheem Sterling, Djordje Petrovic and Axel Disasi, back from loan spells at AC Milan, Arsenal, Strasbourg and Aston Villa respectively, are among the most prominent absentees. There will be some very familiar names in the Los Angeles side including former Blues striker Olivier Giroud, who spent three years at Stamford Bridge. Former Tottenham goalkeeper Hugo Lloris is also expected to start in goal. Predicted Chelsea XI to face LAFC Sanchez, Gusto, Chalobah, Colwill, Cucurella, Caicedo, Fernandez, Neto, Palmer, Madueke, Delap How Chelsea could line up Monday.
