    Barcelona v Wolfsburg (15.00 BST)

    Barcelona have captain and Ballon d'Or holder Alexia Putellas on their bench today, despite the fact she declared herself fit to start following her recovery from an anterior cruciate ligament injury.

    Nevertheless, having her to call upon is a massive bonus for the Spanish side - if they were not hot favourites already, then having Putellas available makes sure of it.
