WOL-W vs ARS-W Match Preview


Wolfsburg kept their dreams of a treble alive entering the finals of the DFB Pokal by thrashing fellow league title challengers Bayern Munich Women 5-0 in the semifinals last weekend and then beat MSV Duisberg in the Frauen Bundesliga to stay within a point of the top place. She-Wolves have already qualified for the last four of the Women’s Champions League by overcoming PSG Women’s challenge 2-1 on aggregate in a closely fought battle at the quarterfinals. The German giants will now face another tough opposition in Arsenal at this stage having beaten them in the last meeting with former Gunner Jill Roord scoring and Leah Williamson putting in her own net for a 2-0 victory in the quarterfinals of the competition last season. Wolfsburg were eliminated by finalists Barcelona Women after that stage as they look to avoid back-to-back elimination from the Champions League in the semifinal round in a wish to win the title for the third time. Having won their last three European semifinals on home soil, the aim will be to finish the tie-off early in the first leg on Sunday.

Arsenal travel to Germany on an injury crisis and seemingly losing the race for the WSL title with a 1-0 defeat to league leaders Manchester United Women. It was Alessia Russo's winner again that sink the Gunners with Leah Williamson season-ending injury in the first-half compounding the misery. Jonas Eidevall's side are now six points off the top spot in the league table and is forced to fight for a Champions League spot instead with Manchester City Women, both level on points. In Europe, Arsenal have a chance to enter the final of the Champions League having already beaten German opposition in the quarterfinals. They overturned a 1-0 deficit from the first leg against Bayern Munich Women at the Emirates through a screamer from Frida Maanum in the 20th minute and Stina Blackstenius quickly added another to secure the victory on aggregate. Arsenal qualifies for their first semifinal The Gunners will now seek revenge for their last eight elimination in the hands of Wolfsburg at the semifinal this time. Should they manage to win, it will be their first one away in the Champions League last four after six such fixtures.
