The pressure is off Chelsea as they prepare for the final game of their Women's Champions League group stage campaign against Paris FC on Tuesday night.

A 2-1 victory over Real Madrid on Matchday 5 saw the Blues secure their spot in the knockout stages as Group D winners with a game to spare. Chelsea were aided by Paris' draw away at Hacken which bolstered their own chances of progressing into the quarter-finals.

Paris are just a point adrift of Hacken heading into Matchday 6.

However, the French side have their work cut out on Tuesday night as they face the imperious Blues. Emma Hayes' team harbour hopes of a majestic season in the great coach's last season at the helm in west London. Chelsea prevailed 4-1 in the reverse fixture.

Here's 90min's preview of Tuesday's WUCL clash in Paris.

Paris FC vs Chelsea score prediction

Hayes won't oversee a complacent showing on Tuesday night, although Paris' desperation in comparison with the Blues gives them a shot of upsetting the odds and progressing into the knockout stages. They'll also need Real Madrid to do them a favour in the other fixture.

While the talent disparity was evident in the reverse fixture, Chelsea have so far earned two draws away from home in the WUCL group stage. They certainly haven't been as dominant on their travels in Europe, and they should conclude Group D with another point in Paris.

Prediction: Paris FC 2-2 Chelsea
