BLACKBURN Rovers Ladies will play host to National Division rivals Leeds United in the quarter-finals of the FA Women's Cup.

Rovers, who booked their place in the last eight of the competition thanks to Katie Anderton's hat-trick in the 3-2 win over Chelsea, were forced to wait an extra week to discover their opponents, after Leeds and Cardiff's fifth round tie was originally postponed.

Leeds - last season's beaten finalists - had to come from behind to defeat the top-flight strugglers in the rearranged fixture, after Gwennan Harris had handed the home side a deserved 65th-minute lead.

But Nicole Emmanuel's 90th-minute equaliser and Sue Smith's late winner, four minutes into injury-time, sealed the Bluebirds' fate.

Manager Adam Lakeland said: "Before the draw was made, we fancied anybody at home. We were not expected to get this far and we are massive underdogs in this weekend's tie.

"We respect Leeds, but we don't fear them. We are confident we can cause an upset, especially after Cardiff's performance against them in the last round.

"We are in confident mood on the back of three straight wins, so we will have a real go because we're only two victories away from a great day out at Nottingham Forest for the final."

The game, which takes place at Clitheroe's Shawbridge Stadium tomorrow (kick-off 1pm), will see the coming together of some familiar faces.

England striker Amanda Barr, who joined Leeds last month from Blackburn, will return to Shawbridge for the first time since she was sent off in a Premier League Cup match against Chelsea in October, whilst former United defender Mel Cook, who took over the Rovers' captaincy following Barr's departure, started for Leeds in last season's FA Cup final.
