Liverpool FC Women and Brighton & Hove Albion Women meet in the FA Cup semi-finals, with a place at Wembley on the line for both clubs.
For Liverpool, this is a chance to reach the final and add a major domestic cup to their ambitions. They arrive at this stage having shown they can mix it with the WSL's best, even if their recent league form has been inconsistent.
Brighton come into this fixture in strong shape under head coach Dario Vidosic, two years into a project that has transformed the club's standing in the women's game. Fran Kirby has been central to that, bringing winning experience to a squad that is starting to believe it can challenge for trophies.
The Seagulls know what it feels like to fall at this stage. They were beaten in a 3-2 thriller in 2023 when Rachel Williams' late winner sent Manchester United to Wembley instead. This time, the mood around the club feels different.
Liverpool will be determined to deny them. Both sides have earned their place in the last four and neither will treat this as anything other than a genuine final before the final.

Liverpool's last five matches tell the story of a side capable of producing results but struggling for consistency. They have won two, drawn one and lost two, scoring seven goals and conceding five across that run. Their most recent outing ended in a 1-0 WSL defeat to Manchester City Women, following a 1-0 home loss to West Ham United the week before. The brighter moments came earlier in that stretch, with a 2-3 win at Everton and a 1-0 FA Cup victory at Charlton Athletic showing the attacking quality they can produce when things click.
Brighton arrive in far better recent form. They have won three of their last five, drawing the other two without defeat, and their results include a 3-2 WSL win over Manchester City Women. Their most recent match ended 1-1 against Arsenal Women in the WSL, while they also drew 1-1 with Manchester United Women earlier in May. The Seagulls beat Arsenal Women in the FA Cup quarter-final and claimed a 1-0 win at Leicester City WFC, giving them five matches without a defeat heading into this semi-final.
