Roma Women are competing in the UEFA Women's Champions League group/qualifying round after advancing through qualifiers (defeating Aktobe 2-0, Sparta Praha 5-1, Sporting CP 2-0 in the second leg after losing 1-2 in the first). Last season, they finished second in Group A (9 points), just behind Wolfsburg on head-to-head. Roma Women had a poor start to the qualifying round losing 2-6 to Real Madrid and 0-4 to Barcelona. Their attack depends on Evelyne Viens and Emilie Haavi, while their defense is weak (conceding 10 goals in 2 matches). However, their home ground Tre Fontane is a stronghold where they won 2 out of 3 Serie A Femminile matches. Therefore, Roma Women aim for their first 3 points to improve their ranking.

Valerenga Women are debuting in the qualifying round after defeating Ferencváros 5-1 on aggregate in qualifiers. Last season, they finished fourth in Group C (1 point, drawing 1-1 with Bayern). This season, they lost 0-1 to Manchester United and 1-2 to Wolfsburg (conceding in stoppage time). Their defense has conceded 3 goals, but their attack has yet to score. Despite this, Valerenga lead the Norwegian league with 32 points from 13 matches and a 28-7 goal difference.

Roma Women have superior Serie A quality and home advantage. Meanwhile, Valerenga Women are not only inferior in quality but also have a rather modest attack in Europe. The match promises Roma Women control and a clear win thanks to their varied attack.
