Following the conclusion of the group stages of the Subway®️ Women’s League Cup, ball numbers for the quarter and semi-final draw have now been confirmed.

Set to be hosted by TikTok star, podcast host and I’m A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here alumni GK Barry and her partner - Portsmouth striker Ella Rutherford - the draw will be broadcast live on the Barclays Women’s Super League TikTok account on Tuesday 25 November from 6pm.

The five group winners – Manchester City, Liverpool, West Ham United, Crystal Palace and Tottenham Hotspur - will join Arsenal, Manchester United and current holders Chelsea in the final eight, with the trio entering at this stage due to their involvement in the UEFA Women’s Champions League.

The quarter final ball numbers are as follows:

1. West Ham United

2. Chelsea

3. Manchester City

4. Crystal Palace

5. Tottenham Hotspur

6. Liverpool

7. Arsenal

8. Manchester United

This will be an open draw, with no regionalisation. The first club drawn will be the home team, and the second, the away team.

The quarter finals are one tie which will be played to a conclusion – if required, including 30 minutes of extra time and penalties. These fixtures will be played across December 20 and 21, 2025.

The semi-final draw will also be conducted on Tuesday, with each quarter final tie appointed a number that will represent the winner of that respective fixture.

1. Winner of Tie 1

2. Winner of Tie 2

3. Winner of Tie 3

4. Winner of Tie 4

The balls will then be drawn, and the possible fixtures for the final four of the competition will be confirmed – first ball out, the home team, and second, the away team.

The semi-final games will follow the same format as the quarter finals (if required, 30 minutes of extra time and penalties), and will be played over January 21 and 22, 2026.

The final will be contested across the weekend of March 14 and 15, 2026 – with details including the date, kick-off time and venue to be confirmed in due course.
