Häcken W
UEFA Women's Champions League
Chelsea have the historical advantage over Häcken, having recorded one victory and one draw in their two previous UEFA Women's Champions League meetings. Their first encounter ended in a goalless draw at Stamford Bridge in December 2023, while The Blues subsequently secured a convincing 3-1 away victory in Sweden six days later.
Häcken team overview
Häcken have enjoyed an excellent domestic campaign in Sweden, finishing at the top of the Damallsvenskan standings with 68 points from 25 matches.
However, their European performances have been considerably less convincing. Häcken opened their Champions League campaign with consecutive defeats against Inter (1-0) and Juventus (3-0) before collecting their first point in a 1-1 draw away to Paris FC.
Anna Anvegård remains an important attacking option, having scored Häcken's only goal in the competition so far. Joy Omewa and Maja Bodin are other players expected to contribute in the final third.
There are no clearly established new injury concerns in the available pre-match reports, although the final team selection will provide a better indication of player availability.

Chelsea team overview
Chelsea arrive in Sweden as favourites, despite dropping points in their latest Women's Super League outing. Sonia Bompastor's team were held to a 1-1 draw by Everton on Saturday, ending their winning run in the domestic competition.
Their European campaign has been similarly solid. Chelsea began with a 1-0 victory over Austria Wien, followed by a goalless draw against Lyon and a 2-0 home success against Roma.
Regarding team news, Lauren James is expected to remain unavailable with a hamstring injury, while Naomi Girma and Mayra Ramírez have also been sidelined. Lexi Potter has returned to training and could provide another midfield option.

Prediction
Chelsea have a clear advantage heading into this encounter, particularly considering their defensive performances in the Champions League. The Blues have conceded no goals in their opening three matches, while Häcken have managed just one goal and have already suffered a heavy home defeat against Juventus.
Prediction: Under 3.5 Goals.
Three reasons we expect Under 3.5 Goals
- Chelsea's defensive record in Europe. The Blues have conceded zero goals in their opening three Champions League matches.
- Häcken's struggles in the Champions League. The Swedish side have scored just once in three league-phase fixtures.
- One of the two previous head-to-head meetings between these sides produced under 3.5 goals.
Main prediction Häcken W - Chelsea W
Under 3.5 goals
