Austria vs. Paris FC in third UWCL qualifying round

In the third qualifying round of the UEFA Women's Champions League, Austria Wien will face Paris FC. The French team finished in a respectable third place in the Premiere Ligue last season. The first leg will take place on 11 September in Paris, with the return leg following on 18 September at home in Vienna.

The Violets won their mini-tournament in the second qualifying round with a confident 2-0 victory over Glasgow City and a 3-0 win over FC Minsk. Now they face Paris FC in Q3. Last season, the French team finished third in the Premiere Ligue.

Q3 now only consists of home and away matches

While the second qualifying round was still structured as a mini-tournament with semi-finals, finals and a match for third place, the third qualifying round now consists of a classic home and away match. The Violets will first play in Paris on 11 September, followed by a home match in Vienna at the Franz-Horr-Stadion on 18 September. The winner of Q3 will secure a place in the league phase of the UWCL, while the loser will enter the second qualifying round of the new UEFA Women's Europa Cup.
