Real Madrid vs Barcelona: Women’s Champions League Quarter-Finals

By Vikram Nair / 25.03.2026

Real Madrid Femenino will face Barcelona in the Women’s Champions League quarter-finals on March 25, 2026, at the Alfredo Di Stéfano stadium. The match is set to kick off at 13:45 EST (18:45 local time).

Real Madrid enters this match with momentum, having won their last seven matches, five of which were accompanied by clean sheets. However, their historical performance against Barcelona in Clasico encounters has been challenging, with Real Madrid losing 19 of the 20 matches played against their rivals.

Barcelona, on the other hand, has been in formidable form, finishing the league phase in the top spot with 16 points from 18. They are currently unbeaten in 24 outings and have won their last seven quarter-final ties since their last defeat to Lyon in the 2017-18 season.

In terms of player availability, Barcelona will be without Aitana Bonmati due to a broken leg, while Real Madrid cannot call upon Teresa Abelleira due to a long-term injury. These absences could significantly impact the strategies employed by both teams.

The last time Real Madrid reached the quarter-finals was in the 2021-22 season, where they were eliminated by Barcelona. This adds an additional layer of pressure on Real Madrid as they seek to overcome their rivals in this knockout stage.

The winners of this quarter-final will advance to meet either Bayern Munich or Manchester United in the semi-finals, intensifying the stakes for both teams.

As the match approaches, observers are keen to see if Real Madrid can break their poor record against Barcelona and if they can leverage their recent form to secure a victory.

Details remain unconfirmed regarding any last-minute changes to team lineups or strategies as the match date approaches.
