The ladies' first team meet division one side Western Springs for a place in the Soccer2 Women's Knockout Cup final at Seddon Fields on Sunday at 11am.
The Maroons go into the match on the back of a six-game winning streak and have already eliminated another division one side from the competition when they accounted for Papakura 3-1 in the round of 16.
The women reached the final four last weekend after taking care of a plucky Mt Albert Ponsonby side 2-0 and will hope to book their first final appearance in any cup competition by tipping out the third-placed side in division one.
Sunday's game is the second big cup clash for the ladies this season after they faced Premier League opposition in Eastern Suburbs in the second round of the national women's Uncle Toby's Knockout Cup.
It would be great to see you at Seddon Fields on Sunday as the girls try to seal their spot in the final.
