2023/24 UEFA Women's Champions League
Posted: Tue May 02, 2023 23:57
With the 2022/23 UWCL season almost finished and the final a month away, it is time to look at the teams which have qualified for the 2023/24 UWCL.
Access list: https://editorial.uefa.com/resources/02 ... ntries.pdf
(3 UWCL spots)
France: Lyon (Group stage or League Path Round 2), PSG (Group stage or League Path Round 2), TBD (League Path Round 1)
https://int.soccerway.com/national/fran ... on/r70403/
With three rounds to go, Lyon leads PSG by 1 point, and all will likely be decided by their head-to-head match in the second to last round. Fleury 91 and Paris are currently tied on points for 3rd place.
Germany: 3 teams TBD (Group stage or League Path Round 2 or League Path Round 1)
https://int.soccerway.com/national/germ ... on/r69234/
Wolfsburg, reaching the UWCL final with an extra time semi-final win, will be underdogs for both the UWCL and domestic league title. They trail Bayern by 1 point with 4 rounds to go, but with no head-to-head match left, Bayern just needs to avoid any slip-up to claim the league title. Frankfurt are currently 3rd, leading Hoffenheim by 3 points.
Spain: Barcelona (Group stage), Real Madrid (League Path Round 2 or League Path Round 1), TBD (League Path Round 2 or League Path Round 1)
https://int.soccerway.com/national/spai ... on/r69259/
Barcelona, having reached the UWCL final on Thursday, then won their 26th league match out of 26 on Sunday to win the domestic league title, and become the first team to qualify for next season's group stage. Real Madrid are already assured of top three, and with a 6-point lead over Levante with 3 matches to go, should finish 2nd, while Levante only need 1 more point to be assured of 3rd place.
England: 3 teams TBD (Champions Path Round 2 or League Path Round 2 or League Path Round 1)
https://int.soccerway.com/national/engl ... on/r69053/
Both Chelsea and Arsenal must overcome the disappointment of getting knocked out in the UWCL semi-finals to catch up with the two Manchester teams in the league table, or at least finish in top three to qualify for next season's UWCL. The remaining head-to-head matches among the top four are Chelsea vs Arsenal and Manchester United vs Manchester City. If Barcelona win the UWCL or if Wolfsburg win the UWCL and league double, the English champions will enter the group stage.
Sweden: Rosengard (Champions Path Round 2), Hacken (League Path Round 2), Linkoping (League Path Round 1)
Czechia: Slavia Praha (Champions Path Round 2 or League Path Round 2), 2 teams TBD (Champions Path Round 2 or League Path Round 2 or League Path Round 1)
https://int.soccerway.com/national/czec ... nd/r69967/
Slavia Praha, with 3 wins so far in the championship group, are now favorites for the title, as they have a 7-point lead (but played 1 game more) over Sparta Praha, who have lost both matches so far in the championship group. Slovacko have a 1-point lead over Slovan Liberec, but have played 1 game more.

Roma, who as league runners-up reached the UWCL quarter-finals in their debut UWCL campaign, are now the league champions for the first time. Juventus have to settle for 2nd and enter the more difficult League Path. Both teams have a chance to be promoted to Round 2 in their path: Roma will be promoted if Barcelona win the UWCL or if Wolfsburg win the UWCL and league double, Juventus will be promoted if Wolfsburg win the UWCL and finish 2nd or 3rd in their league.
Denmark: 2 teams TBD (Champions Path Round 1 or League Path Round 1)
https://int.soccerway.com/national/denm ... nd/r70601/

Netherlands: Ajax (Champions Path Round 1 or League Path Round 1), Twente (Champions Path Round 1 or League Path Round 1)
https://int.soccerway.com/national/neth ... on/r69442/
Ajax defeated Twente last weekend to overtake their opponents, and now lead by 1 point with only 1 match to play.

Belarus: Dinamo-BGU (Champions Path Round 1), Minsk (League Path Round 1)
