The Continental Cup semi-finals kick off on Wednesday evening, as five-time champions Arsenal welcome four-time champions Manchester City to Meadow Park.

Arsenal are vying to win the competition for the first time since 2018 as they attempt to end their uncharacteristic three-and-a-half-year trophy drought.

Arsenal vs Man City score prediction
Wednesday could be a really interesting encounter. It's the first time the two sides have met this season, and although Arsenal have enjoyed a stronger first half of the campaign, they have struggled in front of goal in their last two matches against fellow WSL sides following injuries to key forwards.
City meanwhile are unbeaten in 16 in all competitions - a run dating back to October. But, since the pieces started to come together for Gareth Taylor's new look side after the September international break, Wednesday's clash will just be the second match against a fellow WSL top four side.
It should be competitive, but Arsenal could just edge it.
