They have simply not lost since the Champions League semi-final second leg against Arsenal last season (1-4). These Lyonnaises are now intractable, in all competitions, and have a string of victories. This Wednesday evening in Turin could allow them to collect an 18th in a row.
Behind Ada Hegerberg, the competition’s top scorer (3 goals), Jonatan Giraldez’s players are simply unplayable in the competition. They took their revenge on Arsenal (2-1) to start, before crushing the Austrians of St. Polten (3-0) then knocking out Wolfsburg (3-1), also undefeated until now. In the league, OL are first with seven victories in as many matches and the recent victory over Paris FC (1-0) thanks to Chawinga continued to establish their superiority.
Juventus is nevertheless an outsider in this competition and we will have to be wary of it. With its three French players, Lindsay Thomas, Estelle Cascarino and Pauline Peyraud-Magnin, the club has already beaten Atletico Madrid (2-1) and Benfica (2-1) this season.
The start of this match on Day 4 of the Women’s Champions League will be given at 6:45 p.m. at the Stadio Vittorio Pozzo. The meeting will be followed live on Disney +.
