Women’s Champions League Final: Chelsea Women v Barcelona Femenino, Gamla Ullevi stadium, Gothenburg, Sunday, 8pm – Live BT Sport 2Sunday’s Women’s Champions League final will see either Chelsea or Barcelona crowned champions of Europe for the first time, and though the Catalan club are hot favourites, the London side are also on a roll. Barcelona crushed everyone in their path en route to the Primera Division title, winning all 26 of their league games this season and scoring 128 goals while conceding only five. Chelsea may not have been as dominant in winning the Women’s Super League last week, but having won three trophies this term Emma Hayes’s side are full of confidence as they face the 2019 runners-up in Gothenburg. Paris Saint-Germain knocked out Lyon, who have won the last five Champions League titles, at the quarter-final stage before being edged out by Barca in the semis, while Chelsea overcame Bayern Munich to book their berth in the title game. “I expect a good game – they have a fantastic team in general, and hopefully it’s going to be a game where a lot of good football is shown by a lot of good players,” Hansen said.
