The UEFA Women's Champions League returns to the fold with another game this week as PSG take on Real Madrid on Thursday. Both teams have good players in their ranks and will want to win this game.
Real Madrid are in second place in Group B at the moment and have been fairly inconsistent this season. The Spanish giants eased past Real Betis over the weekend and will want a similar result from this match.
PSG, on the other hand, have been flawless in the Champions League so far this season and will be intent on solidifying their place at the top of the group. The Parisians were stunned by Lyon in their previous game and will need to bounce back this week.
