SAINTS Women are set to make the trip to fellow Championship side Bristol City in the third round of this season’s Women’s FA Cup.

Marieanne Spacey-Cale’s side will visit the Vixens on Sunday, December 11.

The sides have already done battle in league action this season, with Beth Lumsden’s goal cancelling out a first-half opener from Ffion Morgan in a 1-1 draw.

City are just one place above Saints in the second tier, sitting second in the Championship table.

Saints Women are next in league action on Sunday when they make the trip to league leaders London City Lionesses.

The St Mary’s side have won five of their opening nine league games since their promotion to the Championship this season.
