Title contenders Manchester City are a very strong side full of English and foreign internationals.

They have a big number of ex-Arsenal players with Chloe Kelly, Jill Roord, Laura Coombs, Steph Houghton and Ruby Mace among them.

The draw has been very kind to all the other WSL sides who will play either a Championship or a Tier 3 side. So we could end up with a quarter-final round with only WSL teams.

The fifth round will take place on the weekend of 10 and 11 February 2024, with winning clubs at this stage picking up £80,000 and losing teams getting £20,000.
