Lyon
Last season, the team reached the UEFA Champions League final. In the final match, they lost to Barcelona 0-2. The last time Lyon won the title was in the 2021/21 season. In general, Lyon is the most decorated team in the UEFA Women's Champions League, with eight UEFA Champions League titles to their name. The French team did not qualify for this Champions League draw and started the new season at the end of September.
In the first three matches of the French Premier League, Lyon won three times with a total goal difference of 16:2. It goes without saying that Lyon is first in the table. By the way, this team is also the most titled in the domestic championship. Lyon has 17 titles to its name.
Galatasaray
The team is the reigning winner of the Turkish Women's Super League. This title was the first in the team's history. It gave Galatasaray a chance to qualify for the UEFA Champions League. They have passed two rounds and will play in the final stage of the tournament. For Galatasaray, this is also their first participation in Europe's main European competition. Galatasaray also started in the Turkish Super League.
They have played three matches and won three times. Currently, they have three points and, what is very important, two more matches in reserve, meaning that Galatasaray can go to the top of the table. The goal difference is now 16:1.
