Barcelona Femeni vs Real Madrid Femenino Prediction
This is a historic game for the hosts, as they will be playing in front of fans at the Nou Camp for the first time in history. They have already secured the league title, so they can focus on defending their title in the Champions League.
Real Madrid are without a win against the hosts and travel to Barcelona with a two-goal deficit. It is very unlikely that they'll overcome this deficit but are expected to go down fighting. Nonetheless, the hosts should be able to secure a win here.
Prediction: Barcelona Femeni 2-1 Real Madrid Femenino
