Chelsea Women are set to face reigning European champions Lyon Women in the Women's Champions League quarter-finals on Wednesday at the Groupama Stadium.
The hosts are the record-European champions, having won their eighth European title last season with a 3-1 victory over Barcelona in the final.
Lyon finished second in the group stage and will now face Group A winners Chelsea in the last eight. The Blues are the reigning English champions, and it should be a cracker of a match. The French outfit have won all four games at home in 2023 and are yet to concede.
Meanwhile, Chelsea's best performance in the tournament came in the 2020-21 season when they finished as runners-up to Barcelona. They are yet to lose a game in this edition and Emma Hayes' troops feel they have the quality to challenge for the title.
They head into this fixture on the back of a 3-1 win over Reading at the weekend to progress to the semi-finals of the FA Cup.
