As they prepare to compete in their first ever Sports Direct Women's FAI Cup Final, Bohemians know that they can cement their place in history.

The Dublin outfit became the 43rd different team to reach the showpiece event, which has been running since 1971, and they will be hoping to win it on their debut appearance against Athlone Town.

It has been quite the season already for Alban Hysa's side who finished as runners-up in the All-Island Cup and have been quite impressive in the SSE Airtricity Women's Premier Division. Now, they have a shot at securing glory on Sunday, October 19th in Tallaght Stadium.

A 2-0 victory over Treaty United in the Semi-Finals propelled Bohemians to this grand stage but they have been building towards this moment with Hysa establishing a good blend of youth and experience in the squad and encouraging a style of play that maximises their speed and skill.

Led by captain Rachael Kelly - who is one of the finest goalkeepers in the women's domestic game - and backed up by stalwarts like Lisa Murphy, Katie Lovely and Fiona Donnelly, The Gypsies are a tough team to break down defensively and they use the ball well to set their attacking talent free.

When in full flow, Bohemians are a joy to watch with Sarah McKevitt, Hannah Healy, Aoibhe Brennan, Kate McCann, Leiagh Glennon, Hannah O'Brien, Katie Malone and Alannah McEvoy proving to be their main threats up top. They have players all around the pitch who can wreak havoc and finish when in front of goal - something which Athlone Town will be fully aware of.

There have been 24 different winners of this competition. Can Bohemians make history to become the 25th?
