With a place in the fourth round up for grabs, Dan McNamara’s side make the long trip up north to face the Tigresses.
Managed by Chris Hames, Hull currently sit top of the Division One North table and compete in the fourth tier of women’s football.
In the league, they have won seven of their opening nine fixtures and lead the way on goal difference ahead of Barnsley, who have also accumulated 22 points.
On route to the third round of this season’s competition, Hull have defeated Halifax and FC United of Manchester, while the Old Gold were emphatic victors over Stourbridge and Peterborough United.
Wolves come into the tie following three impressive results over Stourbridge, Boldmere St Michaels and Peterborough, where a total of 19 goals were scored across those three games.
The last time Wolves travelled to Hull, McNamara’s team won by five goals to nil in the Northern Premier Division thanks to goals from Anna Price, Amber Hughes (2), Maz Gauntlett and Amy Dicken.

WHAT THE GAFFER SAID
“One beauty about last Sunday being off was that it gave my staff an opportunity to drive up to Hull. The analyst was up there in the cold and braving the cold because, ultimately, we’ve got to not disrespect anyone that we play.
“They’re rightly and deservedly in the third round so we’ve got to treat it as any other game. It will be tough, it always is away at Hull.
“They’ve got some great players – Ellie Tanser, Helen Lynskey and Hope Knight and all those great players that they’ve signed. Ultimately, that’s why they’re sitting top of the league and looking to get into tier three themselves next year.
“It’s important we focus on the game. This cup has brought so many great memories over the last few years, certainly the most recent one was West Ham last year and there’s no reason why we can’t do it again or go one further.
“It only takes a little bit of luck if you do go through to pull out someone again who is beatable or you get your big glamour ties – that’s what the girls want. They want to test themselves against the best in the country and this weekend is a hurdle in front of them doing that.”
