"Michele Kang rebranded the club from Lyon to OL Lyonnes last year and spent significantly last summer, adding star names such as the France striker Marie-Antoinette Katoto and Lily Yohannes, as well as hiring Giraldez, a Champions League-winning head coach."
"Lyonnes carry continental prestige, eight Champions League trophies in the cabinet, with Melchie Dumornay expected to return after missing out in the first leg."
"That time round it was the French side who had the one-goal cushion heading into the second leg, but Renee Slegers' team triumphed 4-1 at the Groupama Stadium before making history in Lisbon."
OL Lyonnes, rebranded by Michele Kang, has strengthened its squad with star players and an experienced coach. They remain unbeaten in the French league, preparing for a crucial Champions League semi-final against Arsenal. Arsenal maintains the same lineup as the first leg, while Lyonnes makes two changes. The previous encounter ended 2-1 in favor of Arsenal, but Lyonnes has a rich history in the competition with eight titles. The match is set to begin at 2pm BST.
