Champions League

Who might we face? ; Pot 1 (automatic qualification). Lyon; Barcelona; VfL Wolfsburg; Chelsea ; Pot 2. Paris Saint Germain; Bayern Munich; Slavia Prague; Arsenal.

Copyright 2022 The Arsenal Football Club plc. After the group stages conclude in December, a draw for the quarter and semi-finals will take place at 12pm UK time, January 20. Due to our club coefficient ranking, we have been seeded in Pot 2 and will face a team from each of the other three pots:

Arsenal have been drawn alongside Champions League holders Lyon and Juventus in Group C; Chelsea have Real Madrid and PSG in Group A; matches start on ...

For us the intensity level is higher, and we need to have 11 players on the pitch who are absolutely at the top of their game in order to compete." It appears to be the destination of choice. On the flip side, it also serves as good preparation as English teams attempt to rise to the standards set by the likes of Lyon, Barca and co. When they made it to the 2021 final - the same year their male counterparts hoisted the UEFA Champions League trophy in Portugal - their campaign was hit with irregularities due to the Covid-19 pandemic. There has been a huge influx of European players to the WSL this summer. The WSL can only brag one European title to date - Arsenal in 2007 - but England's top tier has been making moves. There's a reason for that, we haven't been near the top teams and our job is to close the gap. They lost out to Lyon at the semi-final stage in 2019, but only came up marginally short. Daly has incidentally made quite the splash since being lured back to the English game from America this season, scoring three goals for Aston Villa in back-to-back wins. Change is in the air. There are, however, growing signs that the competition gap is narrowing. Even a heavily-tipped Barcelona side boasting a myriad of highly-decorated stars - some of Europe's most notable talent - failed to make an imprint on Lyon's well-established domain.

Club Brugge surprisingly tops group B with a perfect 6 for 6. Bayer Leverkusen and Atletico Madrid are on 3 points, while FC Porto is in the basement on zero.

The Israelis will be up against it, but given the weaknesses shown by the Bianconeri this season, a result (or two) may not be out of the question for Barak Bakhar’s men. [Champions League holders Real Madrid](https://playingfor90.com/2022/05/28/real-madrid-claim-14th-european-title/) have two wins in the bank in Group F. Should FC København earn anything over their two upcoming games with Manchester City, they will have caused quite the shock. The Rossoneri is in a promising position, while the contrast could not be greater for the Blues. So when the two do battle against each other, the Germans should have more confidence. Borussia Dortmund is on 3 points from two games, while Sevilla and FC København have a point each. Austrian champions Salzburg face off against Dinamo Zagreb in a battle of two teams who always win their league. Salzburg have a point more than the Blues, while Milan are on 4 points and Dinamo Zagreb with 3 are the top two as things stand. Meanwhile, the two games between Barça and Inter will likely determine who join Bayern in the next round. Spurs will have Europa League winners Eintracht Frankfurt over the next two weeks. Sporting CP is on track for a second consecutive appearance in the Champions League knockouts. They will be expected to get a full 6 points against
