FA WNL Cup and Plate Semi-Finalists to be Determined

FA WNL Cup and Plate Semi Finalists to be Determined

AFC Bournemouth Women, who lifted the League Plate last season, are now just two wins away from securing the FA WNL Cup Final.

The Cherries are top of the Southern Premier and beat Cheltenham Town in the Plate final last term, with Division 1 South West title-chasing Swindon Town standing between them and the Cup final. The victors will face the winners of the Black Country derby between Northern Premier leaders Wolves and West Brom.

Northern Premier side Halifax host Chorley, one of three Division 1 North sides in the Plate semi-finals, while Durham Cestria head to Cheadle where they won 1-0 in late November.

Burnley look set to go top of the Northern Premier with basement side Sporting Khalsa their visitors, while Watford or Plymouth could lead the Southern Premier with wins over teams in the drop zone, but Argyle would require a large margin of victory.

The Division One North clash between Leeds and Wythenshawe will see United go top with just a point or the latter with all three.

Midlands leaders Boldmere are at Worcester, with Peterborough trailing them by two points and having the same number of games in hand as they travel to fourth-placed Sheffield FC.

Fulham sit top of the South East table and will entertain Dulwich, while Luton is the destination for Norwich, who are within a point of the Cottagers.

Moneyfields can extend their lead in the South West when hosting Abingdon.
