Both Arsenal Women and Real Madrid Women are struggling for form ahead of their UEFA Women’s Champions League (UWCL) clash on Wednesday night at Meadow Park. Indeed, the hosts have now failed to win any of their last three games in total in all competitions after they were held to a 0-0 draw away at North London rivals Tottenham in the Women’s Super League (WSL) last weekend.
Meanwhile, Real Women are winless in two after they were thrashed 4-0 away at their own rivals Barcelona Women over the weekend. They are currently above their opponents in the UWCL league phase table though, so it is all to play for when these two teams collide.
Arsenal Women vs Real Madrid Women prediction: Gunners to misfire again?
Key stats
- Arsenal Women have won just once in four home games in total in all competitions.
- Real Women have won three from their last four away matches.
- Arsenal Women won this corresponding fixture 3-0 in March.
Correct score prediction: Arsenal Women 1-1 Real Madrid Women
With both teams fairly low on confidence, a draw could well be on the cards. We are not expecting a plethora of goals either, given that both sides also blanked in their previous match.

Alba Redondo should earn a recall into Real Women’s starting XI, and she could cause Arsenal Women a lot of problems. Indeed, the forward already boasts three goals in total in this season’s competition, and will be aiming to add to her tally against the somewhat fragile Gunners.
