The Giallorosse sealed their place in this season\u2019s UWCL after a 3-2 aggregate victory over Sporting Lisbon, as Roma overturned a 2-1 deficit from the opening leg.<\/p>\n
Since then, Luca Rossettini\u2019s side have two of their last three matches across all competitions, with their only defeat coming the Serie A Women\u2019s Cup final to Juventus.<\/p>\n
Although the Serie A has been dubbed as a league that neutrals should not watch due to a lack of goals, the Giallorosse flipped the script after a 4-0 victory over Parma in the opening weekend of Serie A Femminile.<\/p>\n
Manuela Giugliano stole the show with a goal and two assists and the 28-year-old is expected to start for Roma on October 8th.<\/p>\n
As for Las Blancas, qualifying for this season\u2019s UWCL proved to be a simple task after beating Eintracht Frankurt 5-1 across both legs and this triumph has turned their season around after a poor start.<\/p>\n
Madrid were held to a 2-2 draw by DUX Logrono in their opening league fixture, before suffering a derby day defeat to Atletico in the following clash.<\/p>\n
Since then, Pau Quesada\u2019s side are unbeaten from the last six matches across all competitions and have kept four consecutive clean sheets \u2013 with three coming in Las Blancas last three La Liga Women matches.<\/p>\n
The Spanish side come into this clash after a huge 3-0 victory over Badalona and moved to within two-points of the European qualification places.<\/p>\n
Last season, Madrid were eliminated from the UWCL in the quarter final stages, losing 3-2 to eventual winners Arsenal across two-legs despite winning the opening leg 2-0.<\/p>\n
Roma come into this match as considerable underdogs as Real Madrid continue to rise up the ranks in women\u2019s soccer and look to bridge the gap between themselves and Barcelona.<\/p>\n
The Spanish side come into the match with huge momentum after keeping four consecutive clean sheets, but Roma will also be boosted by their recent league victory.<\/p>\n
Although this week is full of huge opportunities for Italian soccer, with Roma kicking off their UWCL journey and many looking to watch Italy\u2019s clash against USA at the U-20 World Cup \u2013 we expect Real Madrid to spoil the party with a convincing win.<\/p>\n
