Both teams have scored in three of Barcelona's last five fixtures.

The final round of group games in the Women's Champions League is upon us and the two teams have have already qualified from Group D go head-to-head on Wednesday night as Barcelona play host to Manchester City.

Barcelona vs Man City Women prediction: Both teams to score?

Key Stats

  • These two teams have met four times before and Man City have only failed to score in one of those encounters.
  • Ewa Pajor has scored five goals in the Champions League for Barcelona women this season.

Correct score prediction: Barcelona 2-1 Man City

We've backed Barcelona women to edge out Man City by two goals to one on Wednesday night as the Spaniards have won each of their two home games in this competition and have scored far more goals than any other team in Group D. Barcelona have scored 23 times in their five group games while Man City have registered 11 goals and both have only conceded three goals, which is why we have gone with a 2-1 final scoreline prediction.

  • DRAW: 23/5 (5.60) – 17.9%
  • AWAY: 10/1 (11.00) – 9.1%

Player to watch: Ewa Pajor

We've selected Ewa Pajor as our player to watch on Wednesday night as the Polish striker has made an amazing start to her Barcelona career.

As well as scoring five times in the Champions League, Pajor has scored 10 goals in just 11 appearances in the Primera Division Femenina in her debut season with the Spanish giants.

Barce's Polish striker has been fantastic in her debut season

Pajor made her name with Wolfsburg in Germany but made the move to Barcelona this season at the age of 28 and she hasn't disappointed one bit for the Catalonians.
