SSE Cup Fourth Round Preview

RANGERS Women will make the trip to Forfar tomorrow as they bid for a place in the quarter-finals of the SSE Scottish Women’s Cup.

Gregory Vignal’s side will take on Forfar Farmington at Station Park in the fourth round of the competition.

The side go into the game on the back of a 6-0 win over Glasgow Girls last Sunday, and assistant coach Andy Gardner is hoping for the same approach to this weekend’s game.

He said: “The girls were superb last week and they carried out everything we asked them to do so it will be the same again this week we will try and keep with that attacking philosophy and continue to try and work on all the good things that we have been doing and when we do perform that’s the types of results that we get.

“It will be another really difficult game, they are a good side they have been in our league for a few years now and it is always a difficult game going up to Station Park but we are looking forward to it and we are just delighted to be in the next round of the cup.”

Gardner is expecting a different challenge going into this Sunday’s game, he explained: “We are playing a team in the same league as us and obviously we played a team from SWPL 2 in the last round so to play someone in your own league is always going to be difficult but we have just got to prepare in the right manner and go into the game prepared and we will be fine.

“They have had a lot of changes we know that and they have had a change of management but we have to just make sure that we go into the game in the right manner and set up the team in the right way in order to make sure that we get through to the next round.

“Forfar will be doing the exact same thing and they will obviously be looking to try and get back to winning ways against.”

Midfielder Chantelle Brown added: “We know that in the cup games anything can happen but we are confident enough that we have had a good week at training and we are still training hard and we know that we can go up there and play as well as we can and get into the next round.

Kick-off at Station Park is 1pm and admission is adults £4 / senior £3 / under-16’s free.
