The third round proper of the Adobe Women’s FA Cup is fast approaching and fans can enjoy two of the ties live on TNT Sports and discovery+.

First up on Saturday, December 13, Wolverhampton Wanderers will take on Nottingham Forest. The two sides will meet at Hednesford Town, with kick-off at 12:15 GMT and all the action live on TNT Sports 1.

The following day on TNT Sports 1, Lewes FC will welcome Crystal Palace for a 16:00 kick-off.

Wolves’ victory over Stoke City in the last round was also shown live on TNT Sports. Late goals from Beth Merrick and Racheal Quigley made it an occasion to remember in what was the first time Wolves Women have featured on national television.

However, they face a tricky third-round clash against Forest, who are currently fifth in the Women’s Super League 2 table.

Forest have, however, won just one of their last six fixtures across all competitions.

Lewes, who play in the Southern Premier division of the FA Women’s National League, have enjoyed back-to-back 4-0 wins over Corsham Town and Cheltenham Town to reach the third round.

Like Wolves, though, they face Women’s Super League 2 opposition next. Palace have only picked up two league wins from nine so far, though, and sit down in eighth in the 12-team table.

But they come into the tie on the back of two straight away wins, against Ipswich Town in the league and then against Leicester City in the League Cup.

It promises to be another thrilling round of Women’s FA Cup action as the competition continues to ramp up.
