Arsenal Women vs Real Madrid Women
John Pentin; European Football Specialist at BettingTips4You
Artem Dovbyk to score anytime | |
15/8 - odds when tipped | |
Reasoning Roma are firing on all cylinders under Claudio Ranieri, winning six league matches on the trot. With Lecce struggling and conceding regularly, the visitors’ frontline should thrive again. Artem Dovbyk is in excellent form and with Dybala injured, the spotlight is firmly on him to deliver once more.

Rationale:
Key Stats:
- Arsenal have won all 6 of their European home games this season, scoring at least 3 goals in 4 of them.
- Real Madrid have suffered defeat in 5 of their last 9 European away matches.
- Arsenal beat Liverpool 4-0 on Saturday, with Russo, Foord and Caldentey all in the goals.
Rationale
Wednesday evening brings a high-stakes showdown at the Emirates, with Arsenal Women needing a standout performance to turn around a two-goal shortfall from the first leg in Madrid. Having topped a challenging group that featured Bayern Munich and Juventus, the Gunners earned the right to host this decisive fixture – and history suggests they relish such pressure.
Despite the loss in Spain, Renee Slegers’s team remain strong at home. They’ve claimed victory in every single European fixture at the Emirates this season, often by dominant margins. Four of those six wins have seen Arsenal hit three or more goals, highlighting their attacking potency when playing in front of their fans. With the likes of Caitlin Foord, Mariona Caldentey and Alessia Russo finding the net in Saturday’s 4-0 rout of Liverpool, confidence should be high.
Real Madrid, although riding back-to-back wins over Arsenal and Barcelona, have shown vulnerabilities away in Europe. Five of their last nine UWCL trips have ended in defeat, and they’ve not lost by two or more since 2022 – but Arsenal’s urgency and home edge could change that.
If the Gunners can score early and keep the pressure on, a dramatic turnaround is within reach. Backing Arsenal to win by at least two goals provides great value, especially with the attacking form they’re in.
