Confirmed line-ups | London City Lionesses vs Spurs, Women's FA Cup

We can now confirm the starting XI and substitutes for our encounter with London City Lionesses in the Women’s FA Cup fifth round on Monday evening.

Martin Ho has made three changes to the side which started in our 7-3 victory at Aston Villa last time out in the Women’s Super League.

Molly Bartrip comes into the backline in place of Clare Hunt and will wear the captain’s armband for this evening’s cup clash at Hayes Lane.

Cathinka Tandberg makes her first start since late November - our 1-0 win over Bristol City in the Women’s League Cup – as she replaces Bethany England in the starting line-up, with our number nine named amongst the substitutes.

The final change sees Matilda Vinberg come in for Amanda Nilden. Defender Charlotte Grant returns to the matchday squad for the first time since Arsenal in November, 2025, after recovering from a spell on the sidelines.
