Olympique Lyon and Slavia Prague lock horns at the Groupama Stadium on matchday six of the UEFA Women’s Champions League on Wednesday (January 31).
The hosts turned in a superb performance on Sunday, hammering Nantes 6-0 in the Coupe de France Round of 16. Sonia Bompastor’s side are unbeaten in 20 games across competitions, with a 2-2 draw against Brann Kvinner on December 21 being the only contest they didn't win.
Lyon turn their attention to the Champions League, where they have had an unbeaten campaign, sitting atop Group B with 13 points from five games.
Meanwhile, Slavia were sent crashing back down to earth last time out, losing 1-0 to Brann Kvinner. Before that, Karel Pitak’s side secured their first Champions League win of the season on January 18, edging out St. Polten to snap their three-game winless run.
Slavia have picked up four points from five games and are third in the group, six points adrift of second-placed Brann and out of Round-of-16 reckoning.
