Barcelona vs Wolfsburg match preview
Two powerhouses of women’s football go head-to-head in Eindhoven for the right to call themselves European champions.
Barcelona have now reached four of the last five Champions League Finals, claiming their maiden title by hammering Chelsea 4-0 in Göteborg in 2021.
12 months ago, Barça were also heavy favourites to retain their title, but suffered a surprise 3-1 defeat to record-winners Olympique Lyonnais Féminin in Turin.
This time round, Jonatan Giráldez’s team have largely cruised to another final, scoring 37 goals in ten matches against Rosengård, Benfica, Bayern Munich, Roma and Chelsea.
FAWSL champions Chelsea did give the Blaugrana a run for their money in the semi-finals, but a 1-0 victory at Stamford Bridge followed by a 1-1 draw at Camp Nou was enough to see them advance.
Having picked up a fourth consecutive Liga F title, will Barça now be crowned European Champions for the second time?
Since then though, die Wölfinnen have been runners-up on three occasions, beaten in the 2016, 2018 and 2020 finals, each time by Lyon.
Last season, Wolfsburg’s hopes were ended by Barcelona, smashed 5-1 in Catalonia before an inconsequential 2-0 second leg victory at Volkswagen Arena.
This season, Tommy Stroot’s side topped their group, ousted Paris Saint-Germain Féminine and then came through an epic semi-final.
Wolfsburg raced into a 2-0 lead at home to Arsenal, only for the Gunners to fight back an earn a 2-2 draw in Germany.
A week later, extra time was required, following another 2-2 draw in North London, before, as everyone was preparing for penalties, Pauline Bremer pounced on some slack defending to snatch the win.
If they don’t prevail in this final, die Wölfinnen will have to come through next season’s Champions League preliminaries after finishing second in the Frauen-Bundesliga, two points behind Bayern Munich.
Barcelona do kick off at Philips Stadion as overwhelming favourites to prevail, so will this prove to be the case in the women’s Champions League Final?
Barcelona team news
Fridolina Rolfö and Lucy Bronze are both unlikely to feature due to injury, with the England right-back suffering a knee issue at Stamford Bridge in the semi-finals.
Barça are more hopeful that Asisat Oshoala will be able to start, which would be a major boost given that she’s scored 27 goals this season, including five in the Champions League.
Two-time Ballon d’Or Féminin winner Alexia Putellas has come off the bench in each of Barcelona’s last five games, as she slowly recoveres from an ACL rupture suffered almost exactly 12 months ago.
Wolfsburg team news
Defender Marina Hegering has missed Wolfsburg’s last three fixtures so isn’t likely to recover in time.
In better news, Lena Lattwein is back after recently fracturing her collar bone, so will start in midfield.
Ewa Pajor is the top-scorer in the Champions League this season with eight, that’s three more than anybody else, and she’ll join Alexandra Popp, who was the joint-top scorer at Euro 2022, in attack.
