We have been drawn to play Arbroath at Gayfield Park in the fourth round of the Scottish Cup.
The tie will be played on the weekend of Saturday, 21 January 2023.
The two sides last met way back in 2000, where Motherwell needed a replay to see off The Red Lichties.
Horrendous winds meant the first attempt at playing the game got abandoned at half-time. When it was finally played, Don Goodman opened the scoring but it was cancelled out by 40-year-old veteran Tommy Bryce. In the replay, goals from Don Goodman and Lee McCulloch saw the Steelmen eventually through to the fourth round, avoiding a banana-skin against a part-time team.
Matt Penney is your player of the month for November.
The full-back on loan from Ipswich scoops his second player of the month award since arriving at the club in August.
He has played every minute since his debut against Inverness in the Premier Sports cup.
It was Penney’s touch that setup Louis Moult at Tynecastle, when the striker won the penalty against Hearts.
It was a derby day to remember for Motherwell as they thumped Hamilton 3-1 on Sunday in SWPL.
First half goals from Georgie Rafferty, Kaela McDonald-Nguah and Carla Boyce was enough to secure three points for Motherwell.
It was a close opening 20 minutes with Katie Rice having the only real chance. After being fouled on the edge of box, she then got up and took the free kick from 25 yards and skimmed the top of the bar.
Despite few chances, Motherwell controlled all the boy and made it count on the half hour mark. Hamilton failed to clear their lines from a corner and Georgie Rafferty picked up the ball on the left edge of the box and curled an effort into the back of the net.
It was 0-2 on 37 minutes. McDonald-Nguah managed to back heel the ball over the line from a Motherwell set piece.
Motherwell continued their ruthlessness on 43 minutes. Boyce picking up the ball from 20 yards and swivelled and smashed an effort on the volley to make it 0-3 at half time.
Hamilton came out the traps flying in the second half and pulled one back on 52 minutes. Tara McGonigle finishing from a cutback.
McDonald-Nguah almost restored the three goal lead straight after. Good work from Lori Gardner driving in from the left hand side, she found the striker who seen her effort gathered by the keeper.
The rest of the half played out with very few chances until the 80th minute, when Katie Rice fouled in the area and Accies were awared a penalty kick.
Megan Quinn would step up but she blazed over the bar and the game finished 3-1 to the women of steel.
