19 Nov 2024

Crystal Palace Women host Charlton Athletic at the VBS Community Stadium in the second game of the 2024/25 FA Women’s League Cup group stage on Sunday, 24th November (14:00 GMT).

Tickets for Sunday's game at the VBS Community Stadium are available here, with prices starting at just £5.00 for Under-16s.

Palace Women are in Group E of the League Cup this season, along with Aston Villa, Charlton Athletic and Tottenham Hotspur.

Having narrowly missed out on the knockout stages last season, head coach Laura Kaminski and the team will be determined to go one stage further in this year's competition.

Palace faced Villa in the first fixture of the 2024/25 competition, losing 2-0 away at the Bescot Stadium in early October.

Sunday's opponents Charlton lost 2-1 to Tottenham Hotspur in the other fixture in Group E.

Charlton come into this game in 8th place in the Women's Championship, having suffered back-to-back losses against Southampton and Bristol City in the league.

Historically, Palace and Charlton have each had two wins and three draws in this fixture, making Sunday's game a potential turning point in this historic South London rivalry.

Palace will need a win on Sunday if they are to keep their Women's League Cup dreams alive, with both Spurs and Villa winning last time out.

Competition Format

The FA Women’s League Cup features a group stage, where only the outright winner of the group goes through to quarter finals. If the game ends as a draw at the end of 90 minutes, a penalty shoot-out will take place for an additional point.

The competition exclusively features the 22 teams from the WSL and the Championship, with teams placed into north and south regional groups.
