Slavia Women and St. Polten Wowen will trade tackles in a UEFA Women's Champions League clash on Thursday.
The two sides squared off in the reverse fixture and could not be separated in a goalless stalemate in Austria last week.

Slavia Women vs St. Polten Women Prediction
Slavia's defeat to Lyon ended their 13-game winning run at home in all competitions. Coincidentally, their last defeat before that also came in the Champions League against none other than St. Polten in November 2022, so they will be wary of the threat posed by their visitors.
Both sides' chances of progression to the knockout rounds are slim but a win for either side here would put them within touching distance of second-placed Brann. St. Polten were on a 12-game winning streak in away games prior to their defeat to Lyon last month and the Austrians are the underdogs on paper.
Games between these two sides tend to be cagey affairs and another low-scoring game could be on the cards. Slavia Prague's home form has been impressive throughout the season. We are backing the hosts to claim maximum points with a routine victory and clean sheet.
