Manchester City Women lock horns with Manchester United Women in a scintillating Manchester derby in the FA Women's Super League Cup.
Manchester City Women thumped five goals past Liverpool in a dominating 5-1 victory to continue their jaw-dropping form off late. A win against the Red Devils could see the two sides swap places in Group B with Wednesday's hosts finishing the group stage at the summit.
Manchester United Women succumbed to a shambolic defeat against Chelsea as former Red Devils employee Lauren James netted an astounding hattrick against her former side to give Chelsea all three points. Despite their WSL form, Marc Skinner's side have won three out of three games in the FA WSL Cup and would want to wrap up the group stage on a high.
