Holders Chelsea to Face West Ham in Women’s FA Cup Fourth Round

In an exciting turn of events, the reigning champions Chelsea will go head-to-head with their Women’s Super League counterparts West Ham in the upcoming fourth round of the Women’s FA Cup. This clash of titans is just one among a series of all-WSL ties scheduled for Sunday, January 14th.

The stage is set for a thrilling day of action as a total of sixteen fixtures unfold simultaneously across the competition. Last year, it was Chelsea who emerged victorious at Wembley by defeating Manchester United in the final.

Rivals Manchester City and Manchester United have been drawn against lower league opponents as they face Newcastle United and Durham respectively. Meanwhile, Liverpool will embark on a journey to Bristol City while Everton squares off against Aston Villa.

A number of intriguing matchups await fans’ anticipation – from fourth-tier underdogs Moneyfields taking on London City Lionesses to Arsenal going up against Championship side Watford. The lowest-ranked team remaining in contention, Luton Town from the sixth-tier Eastern Region Women’s Football League, could potentially meet WSL giants Brighton & Hove Albion if they overcome Keynsham Town after their replay match.

All these exciting fixtures are set to take place right before the return of WSL action following its winter break.
