Fifth-tier Fulham’s home tie against Championship side London City Lionesses in the Women’s FA Cup fourth round will be shown live on the BBC.
The game, which takes place at 12:00 GMT on Sunday, 12 January, will be available to watch on BBC iPlayer, BBC Red Button and the BBC Sport website and app.
Fulham, who won back-to-back FA Cups in 2002 and 2003, are the lowest-ranked side still remaining in the competition.
London City, who are led by former Paris St-Germain head coach Jocelyn Precheur and are currently third in the Championship, were taken over by American businesswoman Michele Kang in December 2023.
Kang has a plan to take the team into the Women’s Super League.
The Lionesses boast Sweden forward Kosovare Asllani in their ranks as well as 21-year-old striker Izzy Goodwin, who they signed in the summer from Sheffield United for a Championship record-breaking six-figure fee.
Eight matches in the round will be shown live via the Women’s FA Cup YouTube channel and the FA Player.
