  THE BIGGER PICTURE

  Barcelona and Chelsea are now set to meet in the Women's Champions League semi-final for the third year running, and the Catalan side have been on the winning end on both occasions. However, both sides have had changes in coaches this year, with Sonia Bompastor taking over from Emma Hayes at Chelsea, while Jonatan Giraldez was replaced by Pere Romeu. As such, Bright has claimed that the Blues can beat Barcelona this time out.
