Linda and Weir the players to watch

Real Madrid have had to take the long route to reach the final stage of the Champions League after finishing in seventh place in the League Phase with 11 points from two wins, two draws and one defeat.

All the same, the all-whites have attacking players to be wary of in their ranks. That's the case with Linda Caicedo, who leads the way for assists for her team in the European competition with three, plus Caroline Weir, who is their leading scorer with four.

Three previous results bode well

These matches will be the fourth and fifth Clásicos this season. Pere Romeu's side won the three played so far, 4-0 in the Liga F, 2-0 in the Super Cup final and 0-4 in the recent Cup knockout game in Madrid. As fate would have it, there will also be a Liga F Clásico between both legs of the Champions League clash.
