City face Everton, Liverpool and Leicester City in Group B of the competition
Our Conti Cup campaign begins on Merseyside against the Toffees on Wednesday 11 October, before we welcome Leicester to the Academy Stadium on Wednesday 22 November.
Finally, Gareth Taylor‘s side host Liverpool on Wednesday 24 January, who we pipped to top spot in last year’s group stages with a 2-0 win at Prenton Park.
Each of our three group stage fixtures are currently set to kick-off at 19:00 (UK).
The first place team in each of the five groups - split into a Northern and Southern section - will qualify for the last-eight.
They will then be joined by WSL champions Chelsea at the quarter-final stage, as well as Arsenal and Manchester United, should they progress beyond Rounds 1 or 2 in the UEFA Women’s Champions League.
City lifted the trophy most recently in 2022 when we beat Chelsea 3-1 in an enthralling final at Plough Lane which represented the fourth time we’d claimed the major honour.
And last term we reached the semi-final stage having won all five of our previous fixtures in the tournament before just missing out on a place in the showpiece – being edged out by Arsenal 1-0 in extra-time of the last-four.
Ticket details will be announced in due course. Stay close to mancity.com and our official app for any updates.
