Barcelona vs. Lyon Lineups, Live Streaming, How and Where to Watch UEFA Women's Champions League

By Farah Ben Gamra Athlon Sports

Defending champions FC Barcelona Femení will take on eight-time winners OL Lyonnes in the 2026 UEFA Women's Champions League final.

Barcelona Femení and OL Lyonnes are meeting once again on the biggest stage in European women's football. These two are basically the royalty of women's football, and they're facing off at Ullevaal Stadion in Oslo today for the Champions League trophy.

It's their fourth time meeting in a final in recent years, so the rivalry is real. Lyon is trying to add a 9th trophy to their incredible collection, and Barça is looking to grab their 4th and return to the top of Europe.

Barça comes into the final in impressive form. The Spanish team topped their league-stage group with 16 points from 6 matches, scoring freely while conceding just 3 goals. Their knockout run was equally dominant, hammering Real Madrid 12-2 on aggregate before seeing off Bayern Munich in the semifinals.

Lyon's road to Oslo was less straightforward, but equally impressive. The French giants battled past Wolfsburg in the quarterfinals before overturning Arsenal in the semifinals to book another appearance in a European final.

There's another interesting angle to this game too. Lyon boss Jonatan Giráldez will be facing the club he previously led to European glory, going up against many of the same players he once coached in Barcelona.
