St Polten Women vs Chelsea Women

Chelsea are aiming to build on a comfortable win last time out when they travel to St Polten for a league phase fixture in the UEFA Women's Champions League.

The Blues are unbeaten across all competitions this season and will be feeling confident ahead of this one. They should be too strong for the Austrians, who are struggling in Europe.

St Polten Women Form

It has been a poor start to the league phase for St Polten, who have lost their opening two matches. They began with a 6-0 home defeat to Atletico Madrid before losing 3-0 at Lyon in their previous fixture.

St Polten claimed a 2-0 home victory over Sturm Graz in a domestic fixture last weekend for a second straight win. Manager Lisa Alzner will look to carry that form into Tuesday's clash, but their home record has been inconsistent, with two wins and as many defeats in their last five matches in front of their fans.

The Austrians appear out of their depth in the Champions League and have been at least two goals down in the first half in both their matches. Four of their last five matches across all competitions have also produced over 1.5 goals before the break.

Chelsea Women Form

In contrast to the home team’s struggles, Chelsea are unbeaten after two matches in the Champions League. Having held out for a 1-1 draw at Twente in their opening fixture, they eased to a 4-0 home victory over Paris FC last time out.

Chelsea's overall form has been solid this season as they are without a defeat across all competitions so far. They played out a 1-1 draw at Arsenal in a WSL fixture last weekend, while a 4-0 victory at West Ham is also among their recent away results.

Sonia Bompastor's team will be targeting another fast start on Tuesday, having led by two goals at the break in the win over Paris FC. Four of their last five away matches have also produced over 1.5 goals in the first half.

Head to Head

There are no previous matches between St Polten and Chelsea.

Verdict

SKN St Polten (W) v Chelsea (W)

St Polten have lost their two Champions League matches, with a 6-0 home defeat to Atletico Madrid among their results. Given Chelsea's dominant win in their previous fixture, they could be backed in the handicap market.

Four of Chelsea's last five matches have produced over 1.5 goals before the break, and a similar pattern is on the cards here. St Polten have been at least two goals down in their two league phase matches and could be set for a repeat against the reigning WSL Champions.
