Tickets for Sunday’s match are available now, priced at £8 for adults and £4 for concessions.

After completing a successful training camp in Gran Canaria, Fran Alonso’s side ramp up preparations for the new campaign with a week packed full of fixtures.

The Ghirls play Partick Thistle behind closed doors this evening, before progressing on to the match against Rangers this Sunday. They then face Hearts next weekend, followed by Aston Villa U21s before their season starts in August.

The Glasgow FA will host this Sunday’s match as part of the launch of the new Women’s Glasgow Cup, which will see Glasgow FA member clubs Rangers, Celtic, Queen’s Park, Partick Thistle and Clyde all be given the opportunity to enter a team into what is a well-established competition for the city.

Glasgow FA President Eric Riley commented; “Thanks to the committed and generous support of our sponsor Lord Willie Haughey and his company, City Facilities Management Holdings (UK) Ltd since 2010, the Glasgow FA has played an increasingly valued role in the sporting life of the City.

During this period, the Glasgow FA have provided the platform for the children and youth of the City to participate in a range of annual events including the Glasgow Futsal tournament the Primary School Football Festival, the Under 11 Football Festival and the Under 16 Development League, not to mention the Glasgow Cup itself.

We are delighted to now provide the platform for the talented women of our city to display and develop their careers in this new competition."

Competition sponsor Lord Willie Haughey added; “As a company, we are delighted to give something back to the sporting life of our city through these activities, delivered by the Glasgow FA. The Glasgow Cup is a prestigious tournament, steeped in the history of the city and of Scottish football, and we are delighted to support Women’s football as it’s place, and appeal, in the game develops.

The ladies game continues to go from strength to strength in Scotland and across Europe, and I'm delighted with the introduction of the City of Glasgow Women’s Cup as it takes its rightful place in the City’s sporting calendar.”
