Arsenal women celebrating their last victory over AC Milan.
SHARE:
Arsenal Women should not be too worried about their upcoming home game. They defeated AC Milan twice in their last Europa league games. 2-0 in Italy and 3-1 at home, last week.
Watford also suffered from their visit to Meadow Park as they left with a 3-0 loss last week in the Premier League.
Charlton Athletics have only won the competition once but they also are in good form lately. They defeated Cardiff City 5-1 last weekend.
Addicks manager Riteesh Mishra said he felt an ‘overwhelming sense of pride’ for his side to make it this far in the competition.
The last time both sides met was in September 2008 for a League Cup first-round at Meadow Park. The Gunners beat them 6-2 and lift the trophy this same year.
Arsenal manager Joe Montemurro said ‘Charlton are a bit of an unknown but you can be sure we’ve done our research on them. This is an SSE Women’s FA Cup quarter-final but they’ll be treating it like a final. We just need to be very cautious and smart and make sure we play our football’.
Head of Communications for Arsenal Women’s Supporters Club Eoghan Mitchell told City News ‘Not many games in Women’s football get to be played at Wembley so at this quarter-final stage, you can start to smell Wembley far away from it. Knowing that they’ve got a good chance to get to the finale if they beat Charlton, it’s a massive fixture for Arsenal fans.’
Kickout will be at 2pm this Sunday afternoon.
