There is a second Manchester derby in just a few days as United this time host City in the Subway Women’s League Cup quarter-finals.

After Manchester United’s 4-2 WSL victory over Manchester City at the Etihad on Sunday, the rivals reconvene at Leigh Sports Village with a place in the League Cup semi-finals at stake.

Brighton entertain an Arsenal side that was lifted the trophy the past two seasons, Durham fly the flag for the Championship away to Chelsea who have made all the last five finals but been defeated in the three most recent ones.

Neither Spurs nor West Ham have ever got that far but one will be a step closer after their derby clash at Leyton Orient FC.
