The preliminary phase of the Women's Champions League gets underway for Real Madrid, who welcome Norwegian side Vålerenga in the first of a two-legged tie to decide a place in the Group Stage (8:00pm CEST). The Alfredo Di Stéfano hosts this evening's clash, with the return coming next Wednesday on the road (7:30pm CEST).

Our team head into the fixture on a great run of form having won all of their League games so far this season. Four victories, the latest coming over Villarreal, which have seen ten goals scored for just two conceded. From an attacking perspective, one of this summer's new faces Signe Bruun has been the standout name. Her strike last weekend saw her get on the scoresheet for the third successive game.

The opposition To make this round, Vålerenga had to come through two previous ties. The first saw them get the better of Minsk 1-3, before they beat Celtic on penalties in the second.
