As excitement builds, Manchester United prepares to face Bayern Munich in the first leg of their quarter-final in the Women’s Champions League. The match is set to take place at Old Trafford in Manchester on March 25, 2026, with kick-off scheduled for 8 PM GMT.
Manchester United reached this stage after a commanding 5-0 aggregate victory over Atletico Madrid. This marks a historic moment for the club, as it is their first-ever fixture in the last eight of the European competition.
Bayern Munich, on the other hand, received a bye to the quarter-finals, positioning them as a formidable opponent. Both teams are dealing with injuries, with Manchester United missing Anna Sandberg, Leah Galton, and Ella Toone, while Bayern will be without Klara Buhl, Katharina Naschenweng, and Alara Sehitler. Additionally, Lena Oberdorf and Sarah Zadrazil are long-term absentees for Bayern.
Hinata Miyazawa, who recently triumphed in the Asia Cup, may make a return for Manchester United, providing a potential boost to their attacking options. Meanwhile, Georgia Stanway, a former Manchester City player, will be looking to make an impact for Bayern Munich.
