Chelsea Women vs Barcelona Women

Barcelona are aiming to extend their perfect start to the league phase of the UEFA Women's Champions League when they travel to Chelsea on Thursday.

The Spaniards are enjoying a dominant European campaign, while their overall form has also been solid. They also boast a fine record in this fixture and should get the better of the hosts, who are a bit unconvincing at the moment.

Chelsea Women News

Chelsea are unbeaten in the Champions League, claiming two wins and a draw from their opening three fixtures. They eased to a 6-0 victory at St Polten last time out, with Sam Kerr and Catarina Macario each netting a brace.

The WSL side are unbeaten in their last 10 matches across all competitions, with two of the last three ending in draws, including a 1-1 scoreline at Liverpool last weekend. Sonia Bompastor's team have also won their last five home matches.

Chelsea have quality going forward and their open style often ensures there are goals in their matches. Their last two Champions League matches have produced over 2.5 goals.

Barcelona Women News

Barcelona are the team to beat in this season’s competition and sit top of the table after winning all three of their league phase matches. They eased to a 3-0 home victory over Leuven in their previous fixture.

It has been mostly smooth sailing for Barcelona across all competitions, having won nine of their last 10 matches, including a 4-0 victory over Real Madrid last weekend. The Spaniards have also led at the break in eight of their last 10 matches across all competitions.

Barcelona often make fast starts and have opened the scoring in the first half in eight of their last 10 matches across all competitions. Five of the last six away matches for Pere Romeu’s team have produced over 2.5 goals.

Head to Head

Barcelona have five wins and two draws, while Chelsea have been victorious just once in eight previous matches. The Spaniards did the double in last season’s semi-final, with both matches ending in 4-1 victories.

Verdict

Chelsea (W) v Barcelona (W)

Chelsea often fall short in this fixture and could be in for a difficult time once again. Barcelona have led at the break in eight of their last 10 matches and could be set for a repeat on Thursday.

Having grabbed the opening goal in the first half in eight off their last 10 matches, Barcelona could be set for a repeat. The Spaniards earned a win and over 2.5 goals in the last two meetings, and a similar outcome could be considered here.
