Match Preview: Worcester City

August 21, 2025

Cheltenham Town Women host Worcester City tonight in their first game in the re-formatted FAWNL Cup.

The new format sees FAWNL teams placed into groups, with Cheltenham placed into Group F alongside Worcester City, Kidderminster Harriers and Birmingham City Under-21s. 

Tom Davies’ side fell to a 2-0 defeat to Exeter City on Sunday, despite being competitive and causing problems for the away side. 

As for tonight’s opposition, they also started their league campaign with a defeat, losing 3-1 to Barnsley Women. 

The two teams also met last season in the FAWNL Cup, in last year’s determining round, a game which Worcester won 1-0 and saw Cheltenham fall into the Plate competition. 

This led to Cheltenham’s run to the Plate Final, which ended in a 3-1 defeat to AFC Bournemouth.
