Sport Women’s FA Cup: Manchester derby among 16 fourth-round ties

Holders Manchester City will travel to local rivals Manchester United in the Women’s FA Cup fourth round.

That local derby is one of two all-top-flight ties, along with record 14-time winners Arsenal’s trip to West Ham.

The 23 Women’s Super League and Championship sides enter the competition in the fourth round, along with the winners of the nine third-round ties from the lower leagues.

The fourth-round games are scheduled to be played on Sunday, 26 January.

Barnsley, who are one of the five fourth-tier clubs who will contest the fourth round, were handed an away tie at WSL team Tottenham Hotspur.

The lowest-ranked sides remaining, Billericay Town and Actonians, saw their third-round meeting postponed but the winner of their re-arranged game will travel to second-tier Lewes.
