PSG have been handed a daunting league-phase draw in the Women’s Champions League after Friday’s draw, with OL Lyonnes set to face Arsenal and Paris FC also given little respite.

According to L'Équipe, three clubs will represent France this season, as PSG joined OL Lyonnes and Paris FC on Wednesday by eliminating Frankfurt in the third qualifying round, with results of 5-1 after extra time and 1-1.

The Rhône club reached last season’s final, where they were beaten 4-0 by Barcelona, and will notably play Arsenal, who were defeated in the 2025-2026 semi-finals, 1-2 and 3-1.

A far tougher schedule awaits PSG, featuring Bayern Munich, Chelsea, Juventus, Real Madrid, OH Louvain and Manchester City.

Paris FC are only slightly better off, set to face Barcelona, Arsenal and Real Madrid, and will essentially chase qualification against the other three sides.

Every team will play six matches, split evenly home and away, before a league table is set. The top four advance straight to the quarter-finals, with teams ranked five to 12 entering play-offs.
