Women's Scottish Cup Fifth Round Draw

Monday 9 January 2023

The draw for the Women's Scottish Cup Fifth Round took place live from Hampden Park on Monday evening, with host Eilidh Barbour joined by three-time Scottish Cup winner, Suzanne Winters.

Eight ties were drawn for the next round, which will be played on the weekend of Sunday, 12 January 2023.

SWPL table-toppers Glasgow City will host Aberdeen, while Celtic were drawn away to Boroughmuir Thistle.

Championship side Rossvale were drawn against a Rangers side who are unbeaten domestically this season and looking to compete a cup double after winning the Sky Sports Cup in December.

Hibernian lost out to Malky Thomson's Rangers side in that final but the serial Scottish Cup winners will be eyeing up another shot at cup glory as they prepare to host East Fife.

The Semi-finals and Final of this revamped competition will take place at Hampden Park, and Suzanne Winters - who amassed over 100 Scotland caps - believes the chance to run out at the National Stadium will be a huge motivation for the teams competing in the Scottish Cup this year.

She said: "It's fantastic. I was really privileged to play at Hampden because I played for Scotland so I think it's great now that not only international players get the opportunity to play here but teams in this competition too so that's definitely an added incentive for the players.

"My first Scottish Cup final was against Aberdeen and that was an amazing day. Being from the Highlands, with the game at McDiarmid Park, all my family were there and to score a hat-trick just topped it off.

"It will be an amazing experience for Rossvale, playing against the quality that Rangers have got. That will be memorable for them playing against international players and I'm sure they'll be looking forward to it."
