Minute-by-minute report: Can Spurs spring a surprise against the 2020 champions? Find out with Emillia Hawkins
Tottenham were introduced to this season’s FA Cup in the fourth round where they came up against Championship side Sheffield United. Spurs were given quite the fright after going two goals down, but a brace from Bethany England fired them level before Rosella Ayane scored a 96th-minute winner.
Robert Vilahamn’s side went on to face Charlton in the fifth round and won 1-0 thanks to Kit Graham’s 76th-minute strike. Meanwhile, Manchester City cruised to a 4-0 win over Durham in the fourth round thanks to goals from Laura Coombs, Jill Roord and Mary Fowler. They went on to face 14-time champions Arsenal in the next round and clinched a 1-0 win at Meadow Park to book a spot in the quarter-finals. These two sides have already met three times this season, with City getting the better of Spurs on each occasion. Back in November Gareth Taylor’s side stormed to a 7-0 victory over Tottenham in Manchester. They made it two WSL wins out of two in January at Brisbane Road and booked a spot in the Continental Cup semi-finals with a 1-0 win last month.Feel free to email in with any score predictions, match reactions, comments, questions and all that jazz.

Spurs approach this game having failed to defeat Gareth Taylor’s side in two-and-a-half years. In fact, over their last seven meetings Manchester City have won by a total margin of 20 goals to one. But that streak could be ended today with a place in the FA Cup final four at stake.
