Previous meeting

A rematch comes just four days after our seven-goal thriller in the Women’s Super League between the two sides.

Unfortunately, City lost out 4-3 in a topsy-turvy game against the Gunners at the Joie Stadium.

Arsenal took the lead inside 60 seconds through Mariona Caldentey, with Lotte Wubben-Moy heading home a second before the 10-minute mark.

Goals from Mary Fowler and Vivianne Miedema set up an exciting second half in front of just under 5,000 fans at the Joie Stadium, before the visitors regained the lead through Frida Maanum.

Fowler made it 3-3 from the spot to make it three second half goals in ten minutes before Stina Blackstenius hit a late winner.
