WHAT’S AT STAKE?
United are bidding to qualify for the competition’s inaugural league phase, which operates in a similar format to the men’s tournament, but with 18 teams and six matches per club.
Arsenal, Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Benfica, Chelsea, Juventus, Lyon, Paris Saint-Germain and Wolfsburg have already booked their spots, and the remaining nine teams are being decided via the Champions and League qualifying paths.
The Reds will progress if we can overturn the one-goal deficit from the first leg, but extra-time and penalties could be required, should the aggregate score be level after 90 and then 120 minutes.
Should United lose, we will enter the Women’s Europa Cup – a two-legged knockout tournament – at the second qualifying round in October.
