Chelsea vs West Ham United

Sam Kerr's Chelsea advanced to the final four after a dominant 5-0 win over Championship side Durham. Sonia Bompastor's side remains undefeated across all competitions in the 2024/25 season and will be a tough outfit to beat for the Hammers. Meanwhile, Gorry's West Ham booked their spot in the semi-finals after a 2-1 win over Tottenham Hotspur.

When the two sides met earlier in the year in the WSL, Chelsea walked away 5-0 winners. Gorry will be expected to start for the visiting side, while Kerr continues to rehab her injured knee.
