Manchester City welcome back their host of internationals to try and defeat West Ham in the Women’s FA Cup semi-final on Saturday.
Players like Ellen White, who scored her 50th goal for England on the international break, and Lucy Bronze will be back at the club. They will be targeting silverware and the Women’s FA Cup is the last trophy they are able to get their hands on this season.
City have already bagged the Continental League Cup but, as they are out of the Champions League and can’t win the Women’s Super League, they will be throwing all they have at their FA Cup campaign.
It also hasn’t been long since they held the trophy as it was won by them in the 2019/20 season. Chelsea claimed the trophy in the 20/21 campaign and so City will be keen to get their hands on it once again.
But how can fans watch and who could line-up for the teams? Here’ all you need to know.
When is it?
The match will kick-off at 12.15pm on Saturday, 16 April at the Chigwell Construction Stadium.
How can I watch?
The semi-final will be available to watch on BBC One and supporters will also be able to stream the game on the BBC iPlayer.
Confirmed line-ups
West Ham XI: Arnold, Parker, Flaherty, Fisk, Longhurst, Svitkova, Brynjarsdottir, Hasegawa, Yallop, Evans, Leon.
Manchester City XI: Roebuck, Bronze, Kennedy, Greenwood, Stokes, Walsh, Coombs, Weir, Kelly, Hemp, White.
Odds
West Ham - 22/1

Prediction
West Ham may have been able to cause a shock in the WSL this season against City but Gareth Taylor’s side have got back to their best. The Hammers have improved this campaign but City will be able to do enough to overcome their opposition. West Ham 1-3 Manchester City.
