The Manchester rivals have both held the bragging rights in the derby this season but this match is even more crucial in terms of their respective seasons.
City are realistically not within a chance of winning the Women’s Super League and so the FA Cup is their last shot at silverware. For United they are looking to defend a major title for the first time after winning the FA Cup last campaign.
Manchester City vs Manchester United will be played at the Joie Stadium in Manchester, with kick-off scheduled for 3pm BST / 10am ET on Sunday 13 April.

Watch Manchester City vs Manchester United from anywhere
Geo-restrictions mean you will be blocked if you try to access from abroad, but fortunately, there is a solution: a VPN.
A Virtual Private Network – to give it its full name – makes your device appear as if its in a different location, so you can unlock your usual streaming services when you’re out of the country. It’s handy for watching the football when abroad, and the software also comes with a host of privacy benefits on top.

Manchester City vs Manchester United preview
Manchester United head into the match as slight favourites because of Manchester City’s injury crisis.
Lauren Hemp and Alex Greenwood remain out with long term issues, while Bunny Shaw and Aoba Fujino are doubts because of their recent injury woes.
It will also be interesting how City react to their recent spell of results. They played Chelsea four times in a row, and despite winning the first leg of the Champions League, they were knocked out of the European competition, lost the League Cup final and lost the WSL game.
United, meanwhile, are in a good position in the top-flight and are chasing down the Blues. In FourFourTwo’s opinion United will come away with a 1-0 win.
