Both teams met for the first time in a competitive match last November during the first leg of this encounter, and the match ended in a stalemate. The friendly meeting 3 years ago went in favor of the German team.
Roma ladies had their best performances last season after winning the Serie A Femminile for the first time, dethroning Juventus. Roma W started this year’s campaign from where they left it last season and are currently at the top with 36 points after 13 games. They lost their first league game on Saturday when they suffered a 2-0 defeat to Inter Milan ladies. Roma lost their 100% winning record in the league with that defeat.
The Giallorosse made their Champions League debut last season but were eliminated from the knockout stage by eventual winners Barcelona. Unfortunately, their campaign in Europe has been below par this season. They are currently struggling at the bottom of Group C with four points after four matches. They lost 3-1 to PSG on matchday 4, adding more to their woes.
Eseosa Aigbogun will miss the larger part of the season for Roma after sustaining an ACL during their Supercopa match with Juventus earlier this year.
Bayern women clinched their 5th league title last season and have started this campaign excellently. They are currently 2nd on the Women’s Bundesliga log, trailing Worlfsburg with just one point. Alexander Straus’ team is yet to lose a league match this season but has drawn thrice. They drew 1-1 against Nurnberg in their last Bundesliga match before the winter break.
Bayern ladies were eliminated from the quarter-finals of the Champions League last season by Arsenal Women. In the current Group C, Bayern holds the 3rd position with five points after four games, behind Ajax and Paris Saint-Germain. They tasted a narrow 1-0 defeat against Ajax in their last UWCL last December.
Magdalena Eriksson is out after suffering a broken metatarsal in their last encounter with Ajax, while Klara BĂĽhl is also out for several weeks with a muscular injury. New signing Linda Sembrant is in line to make her debut after completing her loan move from Juventus last Monday.

This will be the first competitive match Bayern W will be playing this year, and they will pumped up to play against Roma W. The Giallorosse has played four matches already in 2024, losing three of those fixtures and managing one win. The poor results show Roma is not in great form after losses to Inter Milan, Juventus, and Napoli women.
So, a win for Bayern is the likely outcome. The significance of this match and Bayern’s experience in the competition will likely boost them to go all out for the victory. But a worst-case scenario is to walk out of Rome with a draw similar to the first leg result. Bayern W is among the favorites to win this year’s title, according to our 23/24 UWCL predictions.

Both teams have a decent scoring record this season, with Roma scoring 41 goals in 13 league matches. Bayern has scored 19 goals in 10 league matches. Roma has been on a scoring spree in all their UWCL matches. So far, they have scored seven goals in four games. Interestingly, most of their games have ended with more than 2 goals. This makes it pretty likely that we’ll see over 2.5 goals in their next face-off. We expect a goal fest from this encounter.

Despite poor results in the competition, both teams have only failed to score in one of their four UWCL games. The last time Roma and Bayern faced off in the first leg, they both showed off their scoring skills, ending in a 2-2 draw. And it’s not just a one-time thing – Roma has been hitting the net in eight out of their last 10 matches in all competitions. Meanwhile, Bayern has been no slouch either, scoring in nine of their last 10 games. So, chances are we’re in for more goal-scoring action when these two teams meet again. Given their current performances, most female football bookies offer this bet option.
Here are our UEFA Women’s Champions League 2023-24 betting picks for this fixture:
We expect Bayern W to capitalize on Roma’s poor form and win this contest. If they can not win, we expect them to get a draw. You can catch the game on live stream and win extra cash with our 23/24 UWCL Roma W vs Bayern W predictions by staking on online bet options for the game.
