Man United Women vs Tottenham: Match preview, head-to-head, team news, where to watch
Manchester United Women face Tottenham Hotspur in the Women’s League Cup quarter-final at the Progress With Unity Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
United received a bye to this stage due to their European involvement, while Spurs topped Group E, beating Aston Villa on penalties, before edging past Birmingham City and Bristol City.
Match preview
This fixture comes after last Sunday’s enthralling 3-3 draw between both sides in the Women’s Super League, with United staging a comeback from three goals down.
United were in action in the Women’s Champions League on Wednesday, beating Juventus 1-0 in their final league-phase fixture.
Spurs, on the other hand, were not in action and will arrive as the fresher side. However, they have never won at Man United.
Coach Marc Skinner will hope United build on their impressive defensive display at Juventus to prevent Spurs’ attack from wreaking havoc, as they did last time out.
The visitors will also be aiming to replicate their brilliant attacking display and defend better to secure a victory here.
The winner of this encounter will face either Crystal Palace or Arsenal in the semi-finals.
Head-to-head
Across 17 meetings between them, United have won 13, drawn three and lost just once to Tottenham

Jayde Riviere will be assessed after missing the trip to Juventus, while Millie Turner could be back after a three-month lay-off.
