Wed Nov 20 19:54:35 UTC 2024: ## Real Madrid Women Aim for Champions League Victory Against FC Twente

**Enschede, Netherlands** – Real Madrid Femenino will look to continue their Women’s Champions League campaign with a victory against FC Twente Women on Wednesday. The match marks a rematch of last week’s decisive 7-0 win for Real Madrid in Madrid.

Twente, participating in the group stage for the first time, began strongly but have since suffered back-to-back defeats against Chelsea and Real Madrid, leaving them in a precarious position. A loss to Real Madrid, coupled with a Chelsea win or draw against Celtic, would eliminate Twente from the competition with two games remaining.

Real Madrid, aiming to recover from a 4-0 weekend loss to rivals Barcelona, have already secured five points in the group stage, winning two and losing one. They are hoping for a positive result to boost their chances of progressing to the quarter-finals. A win, combined with a Celtic loss to Chelsea, would secure their advancement.

Both teams will field near-full strength squads, although Real Madrid will be without Athenea del Castillo (injured) and possibly Antonia Silva. Linda Caicedo and Signe Bruun, rested for the Barcelona match, are expected to return to the starting lineup.

While Real Madrid are strong favorites following their emphatic win last week, FC Twente will be determined to secure a crucial victory to keep their Champions League hopes alive. The match promises a compelling encounter between two teams with contrasting fortunes in recent weeks.
