Having already created history by qualifying for AFC Women's Champions League a month ago by ensuring a top-of-the-group finish in preliminary stage, Odisha FC Women will hope for a head start to their group-stage campaign when they take on Japan's Urawa Red Diamonds Ladies at Thong Nhat Stadium in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, on Sunday afternoon.
The Japanese club comes into the encounter on the back of three wins from last five outings in their national women's league (WE League), boasting a potent attacking lineup led by the likes of Mei Shimada, Satoko Fujisaki, Yuzuho Shiokoshi, Fuka Tsunoda, and Seike. The Red Diamonds Ladies are also the defending champions of WE League and they will pose a formidable challenge.
