Arsenal Women beat the odds against Madrid in the quarterfinals, overturning a 2-0 defeat from the first leg. The Gunners finished top of their group in the UWCL, picking up five wins from six matches and losing just once. Arsenal haven’t won this title since their lone victory in 2007, and they must make their home advantage count to stand a chance in the Women’s Champions League Playoffs 2024/25.
Alessia Russo suffered a slight knock, but she’s regained full fitness for the game against Lyon. Daphne Domselaar has cemented her place as the number one goalkeeper, and we are unlikely to see any rotation in between the sticks.
Olympique Lyon were too much for Bayern to handle in the previous round as Joe Montemurro’s team won 6-1 on aggregate. The Gones boast of a perfect record in the Champions League this term, winning all eight matches to date. Lyon Women lost 2-0 in the finals to Barcelona last year, and they would be looking to extend their lead as the team with the most UWCL titles.
Joe Montemurro fielded a rotated team in the last game against Paris FC, and we’d expect the likes of Melchie Durmonay back in the lineup. There are no suspensions for the French side, who are favorites to qualify on football sites with live betting options.

Lyon is one of the favorites to win the Women’s Champions League this term, and so far they have justified their status in the bookies. The French Champions have won all their games in the UWCL, and they remain unbeaten in all competitions this season. Lyon’s last defeat was in the finals last year against Barcelona, and they have gone 28 games without a defeat. Arsenal has improved a lot this season, but they are nowhere near the visitors in terms of quality, and they have lost to Bayern and Madrid in the UWCL this term. An away win has good odds on the Arsenal women vs Lyon women prediction.

One thing Arsenal has improved on in the last few weeks is converting their chances, and they have more than enough to trouble Lyon’s defense. The Gunners have scored 16 goals in their last four matches, with all four games ending with at least three goals. Lyon women are one of the top-scoring teams in Europe, and Bayern was their latest victim in a 4-1 blowout in France. Both teams are in good form, and we should see goals from both sides in a high-scoring game. Backing both sides to score and over 2.5 goals is worth the price on 24/25 UWCL Arsenal vs Lyon predictions.
