Compared with last season, when they were eliminated in the second round, simply reaching this play-off round is already an achievement for Paris Women, but they will still try to overturn their one-goal deficit (2:3) in Madrid against Real Madrid Women.
Real Madrid Women
The visitors will find it anything but easy, because the hosts look a much more successful club at present, as their results show. In Liga F they are, as expected, only behind Barcelona Women, who also topped the main phase of the UEFA Women's Champions League. For the hosts, the first match in Paris was one of four games played in February in which they scored three or more goals. It is also worth highlighting that the decisive goal by Linda Caicedo came after a long ball from goalkeeper Misa Rodríguez: the hosts took advantage of the visitors committing many players forward and settled it on the counter-attack.
Paris Women
In the French capital, the visitors, coached by Sandrine Soubeyrand, let victory slip away almost before half-time, when they conceded twice in the space of just six minutes. At least they will fly to Madrid only one goal behind thanks to Melin Mendy's strike in the 89th minute. The last few weeks have been very demanding for the visitors: in addition to the hosts, they have faced Paris Saint-Germain Women twice in ten days, in the league and in the cup, and on both occasions they lost by the same scoreline, 0:3.
Real Madrid Women vs Paris Women Prediction
These recent poor results from the visitors should not be misleading. In their last two visits to the Alfredo Di Stéfano Stadium, the visitors did not lose: they won 1:0 in 2023 and drew 1:1 in 2025. Real Madrid Women could even be satisfied with a narrow win and then focus on controlling possession without taking too many risks. In this context, it makes sense to consider the visitors on the +1.5 handicap.
