UEFA Women's Champions League Quarter-Final and Semi-Final Matchups Announced

The quarter-final stage of the women's Champions League has set up some intriguing clashes. Barcelona will take on Wolfsburg in what promises to be an exciting rematch of the 2023 final, where the Catalan side famously recovered from a two-goal deficit to secure a 3-2 victory. Meanwhile, Chelsea, the reigning Women's Super League champions, are set to face Manchester City in an all-English tie. Notably, despite City accumulating the same points as Barcelona during the group stage, goal difference saw them finish second.

In addition to these fixtures, other heavyweight teams are also preparing for competitive encounters. Olympique Lyonnais, who hold a record of eight titles in this competition, will go head-to-head with Bayern Munich. Arsenal has been drawn against Real Madrid, setting up another high-profile contest. Further adding to the anticipation, the semi-final draw determined that the winner between Barcelona and Wolfsburg will meet the victor of the Chelsea versus Manchester City tie, while the other semi-final will feature a matchup between the winners of Real Madrid versus Arsenal and Bayern Munich versus Lyon.

The competition schedule is packed, with the first quarter-final legs set for March 18-19 and the return fixtures taking place on March 26-27. The semi-final legs are arranged for April 19-20 and April 26-27, leading up to the final, which is scheduled to be held on May 24 in Lisbon.
