View from the bench
Interim head coach Mikey Harris said, "It would be a dream to be involved in an FA Cup final and we’re two wins away from that.
"United are a strong team, being fourth in the WSL is no mean feat. We’re confident in our own capabilities to win the game while aware of their quality. We will go into it full of belief.
"We’ve had a really good week, the players have been outstanding and hopefully that will come to fruition on Saturday. United will have some ideas about them and them about us, we have to focus on being the best versions of ourselves on Saturday."
Manchester United head coach Marc Skinner said, "They are good. Watching their play against Bristol [City], you can see how they are developing and the way they want to play. I think we will have to be resolute. I think for both teams the pitch will play a part, both will have to adapt to that. It’s going to be a good game, and one we are not taking lightly by any means.”
Player to watch
Maya Le Tissier, 21, has been an ever present in the heart of United’s defence since joining the club in 2022 from Albion, for whom she made her professional debut at 16 and went on to make 74 appearances across all competitions and score two goals.
The Guernsey-born defender hasn’t looked back since scoring twice on her United debut against Reading. In 2022 she made her England debut against Norway and has been a regular member of the Lionesses’ camps.
