AS Roma Women are ready to welcome Barcelona Femení to the Capital City for the second time after meeting in Quarter of Finals in 2022-23 UEFA Women’s Champions League‘s season. Unlike that particular one in the setting of “Stadio Olimpico” (the main stadium of AS Roma), this time they’ll play at “Tre Fontane” in EUR quarter, smaller but hotter installation.
WHAT TO EXPECT FROM AS ROMA WOMEN
AS Roma Women arrive to the top clash after a 2-6 defeat against Real Madrid in the opening match of League Phase, and probably to avoid the repetition they will strengthen the defense and try to counterattack with maximum cynicism. The “blaugrana” lost Ewa Pajor for a couple of months due to a knee injury (that fortunately avoided to torn her ACL) but can still count on a squad rich in talent. All eyes will be put on Cláudia Pina‘s brilliance when she takes over in the second half.
THE SUPPORTERS AS THE TWELFTH WOMAN
AS Roma Women‘s supporters are the ones who can try to help their team in a very difficult sporting night, cheering all the time and creating a little bedlam. Barcelona Femení, in the past, have suffered a little bit of pressure when the crowd was completely in the support of home team, so in a small stadium this can be a little detail that can help giallorosse do their best and top up the physical and technical gap with their Spanish rivals.
