The draw for the UEFA Women's Champions League has been made, and Barcelona will face Arsenal in the final. This will be a repeat of the 2025 final, with Barcelona looking to make it five Champions League titles in a row. Arsenal, on the other hand, will be looking to win their third title. The two teams have a long history of competition, with Barcelona beating Arsenal in the 2024-25 final.
Barcelona have been in seven of the last eight Champions League finals, including the last six, and have won the competition four times. They have a strong midfield and the necessary experience to go far in the competition. Arsenal, however, are less certain to be there, but they have a good relationship with European competitions and could have a good run in the Champions League.
The league phase of the competition starts on September 22-23 and ends on December 16. The top 12 teams will qualify for the knockout stages, while teams in positions 13 to 18 will be eliminated. The knockout phase playoffs will take place in February, with the quarterfinals played in March and April.
