Confirmed: Rivals for the United Women's FA Cup Match

Burnley, currently competing in the third-tier FA Women’s National League North, advanced to the fourth round after a dominant 7-0 victory over fourth-tier Peterborough on Sunday. Claudia Walker, who has played in the WSL for Liverpool, Everton, Birmingham, and West Ham, netted two of the goals.

Previously, United faced the Clarets at the same stage of the FA Cup during the 2020/21 season. Under the leadership of Casey Stoney, we secured a convincing 6-0 victory at the County Ground in Leyland.

In that match, Millie Turner, Ella Toone, Lucy Staniforth, Amy Turner, and Kirsty Hanson (twice) contributed to a resounding win.
