City’s FA Women's Super League game against Aston Villa will be shown live via the BBC Red Button.

Kick-off for the game will be at 12.30pm on Sunday 17 January at the Academy Stadium.

The pair met in the opening league encounter of the 2020/21 season, as City travelled to Villa Park to face the newly-promoted side in Gareth Taylor‘s first competitive clash at the helm.

Georgia Stanway bagged a first-half brace to seal the points and gain the perfect start to the season.

City currently sit fourth in the WSL table - eight points behind league leaders Manchester United, but with a game in hand.

Aston Villa have endured a difficult start to life in the top-flight, having won just two of their opening eight games.

The Villains sit four points clear of Bristol City at the bottom of the table.
