Chelsea FC v FC Barcelona: Semifinal 1st Leg - UEFA Women — Barcelona take on Chelsea on Thursday.

Barcelona Women host Chelsea Women in the second leg of their UEFA Women's Champions League semifinal on Thursday (April 27).

The hosts hold a narrow advantage in the tie, claiming a 1-0 victory in the first leg at Stamford Bridge on Saturday. Caroline Hansen scored a fourth-minute goal to give the Spanish giants a one-goal lead to take back to Catalunya. The victory was well-deserved for Barcelona, as they controlled proceedings from start to finish, with Chelsea unable to make their home advantage count.

The Blues will now look to turn the tie around at the Camp Nou and book a spot in the final against Arsenal or Wolfsburg

Barcelona Women vs Chelsea Women Prediction

Lyon's elimination from the Champions League have made Barcelona the outright favourites to go all the way. Last year's runners-up proved their mettle with a seasoned display in the first leg against Chelsea.

The Blues would have been aiming for another giant-killing following their elimination of perennial champions Lyon but failed to step up to the occasion in front of their fans. Emma Hayes will have to bring her tactical A-game if her side are to complete a spectacular turnaround against Barcelona, who are near invincible at home.

That seems unlikely, thoughm and a rampant Blaugrana side should complete the job with a routine win.
