Barcelona are looking to claim successive UEFA Women's Champions League crowns when they face Lyon in the final this Saturday.

Barca beat Wolfsburg in the final last year and edged past Emma Hayes' Chelsea in this season's semi-finals, while Lyon conquered French rivals Paris Saint-Germain over the course of two final four battles. Both clubs have won their domestic titles at a canter, with the weekend match-up a tantalising affair.
