Tottenham and Arsenal face off in the Women's FA Cup on Saturday - and Alex Morgan could make her Spurs debut.

The north London derby will be given extra spice by the possibility of US star Morgan featuring for the first time for Spurs since arriving on a season-long loan deal from Orlando Pride.

Morgan is one of the biggest stars of the women's game, and Spurs will be hoping that having a household name from the US will boost their brand and take their team to the next level.

But while all eyes will be on Morgan, there is still the small matter of a London derby between fierce rivals - and a place in the FA Women's Cup semi-finals at stake.

Date, time and venue

Arsenal vs Spurs is scheduled for a 5:15pm BST kick-off on Saturday, September 26.

This match will be played behind closed doors at Meadow Park.

How to watch

TV channel: The match will be free to watch on television on BBC Two for those with a valid TV licence.

Live stream: Those with a valid TV licence can watch the match for free online via the BBC iPlayer.

Team news

The big question is whether Alex Morgan will make her Spurs debut. The US forward has been training all week and could be in contention to start, but it would be her first competitive match in over a year having given birth in May.

Joint Tottenham manager Juan Amoros said: "Alex is obviously our player, we can't forget that she landed last week.

"She has been training with us for a week. She is one of our players and as everyone else can be selected to play because all the paperwork has been done.

"We will have to wait until almost the last minute."
