Real Madrid Women vs Paris Women Prediction
Real Madrid are in danger of being eliminated in the group stage, which is far from what the Spaniards would have bargained for heading into the tournament. Another defeat here would all but see them eliminated and this is an outcome that Alberto Toril will be keen to avoid.
Paris, for their part, breathed life into their qualification hopes with their victory last week. The Parisians will be looking to build on this and another win here would leave them one step closer to the knockout rounds.
Games involving these two sides tend to be expansive affairs. We are backing the hosts to claim a narrow win with goals at both ends.
