Long Crendon 0-0 Caversham United
Goalless it may have been but this game did not lack effort or entertainment. The Goats hit the frame of the Long Crendon goal four times which sounds as if they should have romped away with it. However, Long Crendon gave as good as they got and could easily have scored a few goals themselves. All in all, a draw was probably the right result.

Penn & Tylers Green 1-1 Kidlington
Sasha Smith was back amongst the goals, putting Penn a goal up before half-time. However, Kidlington are made of stern stuff these days and got themselves back on level terms late on through Courtney Sumner. Both teams retain their unbeaten records this season.
Woodley United 3-4 Milton United
In what sounds to have been an absolutely stonking game of football, Milton just about came out on top of a seven goal thriller in which there were seven different goal scorers.
Charley Evans, Amie Benton and May Hamblin notched for Woodley with Jessie Simons, Mollie Dyer, Sarah Saunders and Georgia Winger securing the points for the visitors.

League Fixtures - Both 14:00 ko
Carterton v Long Crendon
Two sides who are yet to experience a league win this season. Long Crendon have drawn two of their three games, including the 0-0 draw with Caversham at the weekend. Carterton are still to gain a point after their 4-0 defeat to Eversley & California. Last season when both were in the Thames valley League, Carterton won this fixture 2-0 with both goals coming from Holly Springate.

Kidlington v Milton United
The top two go head to head at Exeter Park. Both are unbeaten, Kidlington with two wins and two draws. Milton have a 100% record after their two games and have scored four in both league games this season. Extraordinarily, those eight league goals have been scored by eight different players. Clearly a threat posed from all over the park. Kidlington have also scored four goals in two of their league outings. Sunday's 1-1 draw with Penn saw top scorer Courtney Sumner get back amongst the goals after her four on the opening day.

Berks & Bucks FA County Cup - All 14:00 ko
Caversham United v Abingdon United
A tough draw for the Goats as they welcome Premier League outfit Abingdon United to Mapeldurham. Abingdon currently sit second in the league and come into this game fresh on the back of a 3-0 defeat of local rivals Abingdon Town last Sunday. They are also the Premier Division's top scorers with 13 goals in 3 matches. The Goats, who hit the frame of the goal four times at Long Crendon last Sunday, will need to convert at least a couple into goals this weekend.

Eversley & California v Portsmouth Dev
The Boars first league win of the season on Sunday came on the back of progress in the FA Cup courtesy of a superb away win at Caversham. They'll need to take this confidence into this tie against the team in the National League Reserve Division South West. Portsmouth have won both of their league games so far this season without conceding a goal, including a 2-0 opening day win at local rivals Southampton. Eversley will be hoping that Rebekah Pantony can notch another goal in this game. So far this season, if she scores, they win.

MK Dons SET v Penn & Tylers Green
Penn & Tylers Geen are unbeaten in all competitions this season and will need to be at their very best as they face a really tough looking tie at National League Southern Premier side MK Dons SET (Sport & Education Trust). Looking at the squads in Full-Time it appears that the SET squad and the MK Dons Women's squad are the same players. This is not the Development squad. Penn's Chairman has confirmed that this game will take place at Fairfield's.

Woodley United v Maidenhead United
Another tough test for a Southern Region club. Woodley welcome Maidenhead United from the National League Division One South West Division. The Magpies have not yet won in the league. In fact, they are yet to score a league goal in three games. However, they did breeze past Southern Region Premier side Ascot United in the previous round with a good 3-0 away victory. Woodley put out fellow Div. 1 North side Long Crendon with a 2-0 win in the previous round.
