The Women’s Champions League group stage will end between today and tomorrow even if everything is practically already decided. The two Italians in the running – Juventus and Roma – have in fact been eliminated from the competition with the magnificent eight who will play for the title already known. Only who will place first remains to be decided. And in this sense there is no shortage of direct clashes: from Real Madrid-Chelsea and Lyon-Wolfsburg scheduled today up to Barcelona-Manchester City and Arsenal-Lyon tomorrow.
For the two Italian teams, the obligation to finish as best as possible against non-irresistible opponents such as Galatasaray, for Roma, and Valerenga, for Juventus, both looking for their first victory in this group stage. Below is the program and rankings:
