Doncaster Rovers Belles host Lincoln City in a clash of second and third in FA Women’s National League Division 1 Midlands.

Doncaster are nine points behind leaders Stourbridge – who hosts Sheffield FC – but have two games in hand, and three upon Lincoln over whom they also have a two-point advantage.

The one top-flight game sees Brighouse Town attempt to get out of the drop zone, when hosting Boldmere who are just two points better off.

Barnsley are one point short of Division 1 North leaders Durham Cestria before their home game with Chorley, while  York City host Norton at the Minstermen’s all-seater stadium.

AFC St Austell are still in search of their first ever point at this level, next hosting AFC Bournemouth who are second in Division 1 South West.

There are three ties in the League Plate, including Crawley Wasps and Ashford Town meeting for the right to host Cheltenham Town in the quarter-finals.

Hounslow and Southampton Women still have to play their 1st Round tie with the victors to entertain Swindon Town, the winners of that then hosting either Billericay Town or QPR.
