The Vitality Women’s FA Cup is in full swing and 16 clubs remain in the competition following Sunday’s round of fourth-round fixtures.

Nine WSL clubs safely made it through to the fifth round, while six Championship clubs remain in contention. Just one amateur club is in the hat, after fourth tier Cardiff City Ladies beat Burnley 4-1 over the weekend.

There was one shock result on Sunday as Championship side Birmingham City claimed a narrow 1-0 victory over Everton at Walton Hall Park. A second-half goal from Jade Pennock without response secured the win for the Midlands club.

The fifth-round draw will be broadcast live on the BBC’s Sportsday show later this evening at 6:30pm. It will be aired live on the BBC News channel and BBC iPlayer, or you can follow along on our blog for live updates as it happens.

Fixtures will be played on Sunday, February 26 and winning clubs will claim £20,000 of the prize fund, while losing clubs will receive £5000.
