Man United vs Tottenham: Women's FA Cup final prediction, kick-off time, TV, live stream, team news, h2h, odds
There will be a new name on the Women’s FA Cup trophy as Manchester United take on Tottenham in the final this weekend.
United were beaten finalists a year ago, when Sam Kerr’s goal was enough to give Chelsea victory, and they now look to go one better as they return to Wembley for the showpiece event.
Marc Skinner’s side got the better of the Blues in the last-four, and now go into the final as favourites for their first FA Cup success.
Spurs, meanwhile, have never previously even made it to this stage, but they are now touching distance of the biggest achievement in the club’s history. It has been a battling run to the final, with Manchester City beaten on penalties in the last-eight, and extra-time needed to edge past Leicester in the semi-finals.
Tottenham sit sixth in the Women’s Super League table, seven points behind United above them, but they do have a game in hand.

Man United vs Tottenham prediction
Spurs come into this final on a seven-match unbeaten run and can take confidence from their trip to face United a couple of weeks ago, when they were denied victory only by a 92nd-minute equaliser from Maya Le Tissier.
United have had a fairly frustrating season, unable to kick on from last term’s impressive WSL showing, but they have a chance to end it on a hugely positive note.
It promises to be a tight final, but United’s experience of playing in this match could 12 months ago could give them the edge.
Man United to win, 2-1.
