The clash will be the first time the Lasses have played at the stadium since November, when spectacular goals from Georgia Gibson and Sharna Wilkinson saw Becky Langley's side come from behind to defeat Barnsley Women in the Vitality Women's FA Cup.

An amazing 28,565 supporters were at the 'cathedral on the hill' that afternoon, setting a new record for United's women's team, who are challenging for promotion with five matches left to play.

That attendance eclipsed the previous highest tally of 22,134, which was set when the women's side played at St. James' Park for the very first time in May 2022 and beat Alnwick Town Ladies 4-0.

Now, with a third showcase fixture set to take place in the iconic arena, Langley and her side are eyeing another record crowd.

"I think it would be absolutely amazing if we could get 30,000 in here for a women's football game," the Newcastle Women boss told NUFC TV upon the announcement of the game back in March.

"We've had brilliant support at Kingston Park, having 4,000 against York and 2,000 against Middlesbrough.

"We're super impressed with the support we've had and we just want to keep that going."

The Magpies have been in superb form in the FAWNL this term, consistently exchanging blows with fellow promotion hopefuls Durham Cestria at the top of the table.

Langley has on countless occasions praised the resilience and determination of her side, and that certainly doesn't look like changing coming into the clash with Bradford.

The match against the Bantams presents another opportunity for the Lasses to carry their momentum into the final stages of the campaign, and a packed St. James' Park is sure to motivate her squad further.

Tickets for the game are priced at £3 for adults and £1 for concessions in advance from book.nufc.co.uk, but double to £6 and £2 respectively on the day of the game. Get yours now!
