Chelsea v Manchester City - Subway Women — Chelsea Women face Manchester City Women on Wednesday

Manchester City and Chelsea Women will trade tackles in the first leg of their UEFA Women's Champions League quarterfinal on Wednesday (March 19th). The game will be played at the Academy Stadium.

The clash comes just three days after Chelsea claimed a 2-1 victory over Manchester City in the final of the Women's League Cup on Saturday. The Blues went ahead through Mayra Ramirez's eighth-minute strike while Aoba Fujino equalized in the 64th minute. Yui Hasegawa's 77th-minute own goal saw Sonia Bompastor's side lift the trophy.

Chelsea will now shift their focus to Europe and booked their spot in the quarterfinal as Group B winners. Manchester City finished second in Group D. The winner of this tie will face either Wolfsburg or Barcelona in the semifinal.

Manchester City Women vs Chelsea Women Prediction

Manchester City dominated large swathes of the Women's League Cup final but did not make their advantage count. The Citizens have an opportunity for instant revenge and Nicholas Cushing's side will have a partisan crowd behind them.

Chelsea continued their dominance in domestic football with their triumph over the weekend. They are in the hunt for a quadruple and have been utterly dominant this season but continental glory would be the pick of the bunch. The London outfit are still seeking a maiden Women's Champions League crown to cement their status as a bonafide elite side in European women's club football.

We are backing the Blues to claim a narrow victory with goals at both ends.

Prediction: Manchester City Women 1-2 Chelsea Women
