Chelsea vs Paris FC: Kick-off time, TV channel, how to watch and more
From the official Chelsea FC website:
Chelsea host Paris FC at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday night in the Women’s Champions League, hoping to build on the point earned away at FC Twente last week.
A Sandy Baltimore penalty rescued a point for the Blues in the Netherlands last week, but with only the top four finishers in the league phase of the Women’s Champions League guaranteed passage to the knockout stages, with fifth to 12th going into play-offs, Blues boss Sonia Bompastor will be keen to secure a win on home turf this Wednesday.

The form
Paris FC are struggling domestically, and sit eighth in the Premiere Ligue table, with just three wins from their opening seven matches this season.
The Parisian side also squandered a two-goal lead in their opening league phase fixture in the UWCL, coming out with just one point from the 2-2 draw at home to Dutch side Oud-Heverlee Leuven.
Meanwhile, Chelsea sit at the top of the Women’s Super League with five wins and a draw from our opening six matches of the season, having returned to winning ways at home to Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday. The Blues have a one-point advantage over second-placed Manchester City, who we defeated on the opening day of the campaign.
Recent head-to-head
Chelsea have only faced Paris FC twice before, having drawn the side in the 2023/24 season in the old group stage format.
The Blues won 4-1 at Stamford Bridge thanks to goals from Fran Kirby, Mia Fishel, Guro Reiten and Maren Mjelde, and 4-0 in Paris, thanks to a Sam Kerr hat-trick and a goal from Sophie Ingle.
Chelsea have won five of our last six games against a French club, the only defeat in that run coming at home to Lyon (1-2) in the second leg of the 2022/23 quarter-final. Chelsea eventually won that tie 4-3 on penalties following a 1-0 first-leg victory in France.
