A women's bantamweight matchup between Liz Carmouche and Lauren Murphy is headed to the UFC Fight Night 63 event in Fairfax, Va., on April 4.
The UFC announced the matchup on Tuesday.
Carmouche, who fought Ronda Rousey in the first-ever women's bout in the UFC, is returning for the first time since April of 2014. She's lost three of her four UFC bouts thus far, most recently dropping a decision to Miesha Tate.
Murphy entered the UFC for the first time last August, losing a split decision to Sara McMann in what was her first ever defeat.
UFC Fight Night 63 will air live on Fox Sports 1, headlined by a featherweight bout between Chad Mendes and Ricardo Lamas. The main card will begin that day at 1PM ET.
