There’s a treat in the Women’s Champions League when forward, Khadija “Bunny” Shaw and Manchester City take on title holders Barcelona on Match day 1 of the group stage, Wednesday afternoon at 2.
Barcelona has emerged as the continent’s dominant force in the women’s game post-pandemic.
The Catalans have lifted the trophy three times since 2021 and have won the competition in back-to-back years heading into 2024/25.
However, City is without question one of the best teams in the competition having gone toe-to-toe with Chelsea in the Women’s Super League last season.
City sits atop the WSL table through three games heading into Wednesday’s bout and will be aiming to send a massive statement with a midweek victory to kick off their European campaign.
