OL Lyonnes and Inter are unbeaten going into their meeting on 28 October 2026, on Matchday 3 of the UEFA Women's Champions League league phase. Each side has four points from one win and one draw in two matches. The difference is in the goals: the French club have scored eight without conceding, while the Italian side have scored two and conceded one.
This comparison covers only the 2026/27 league-phase matches played up to 1 October, based on UEFA's published results. Kick-off is scheduled for 21:00 Central European Time (CET) on 28 October, or 17:00 in Brasília. Figures checked on 24 October 2026.

Comparison after two matchdays
The teams have identical points records but different goal differences. The W-D-L column denotes wins, draws and losses, respectively.
| Team | Played | W-D-L | Goals for | Goals against | Goal difference | Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| OL Lyonnes | 2 | 1-1-0 | 8 | 0 | +8 | 4 |
| Inter | 2 | 1-1-0 | 2 | 1 | +1 | 4 |
What OL Lyonnes' eight goals actually show
Eight goals scored versus two is a six-goal gap in attacking output and a seven-goal gap in goal difference (+8 compared with +1). But OL Lyonnes did not spread those eight goals evenly across their matches: they all came in a single game. Inter, by contrast, scored once in each of their two fixtures.
The teams have also faced different opponents. Two matchdays show how their campaigns began, not enough to establish who will create more chances or win the head-to-head contest. The defensive comparison is similarly limited: two clean sheets for OL Lyonnes, versus one goal conceded by Inter.
What Matchday 3 can change
Both sides remain unbeaten in the league phase. A win would take the victor to seven points; a draw would leave both on five. Neither outcome alone guarantees progress: every club plays six league-phase fixtures, with three more matchdays to follow this meeting.
Under the 18-team format, the top four qualify directly for the quarter-finals, while teams placed fifth to 12th enter the knockout phase play-offs. The relevant pre-match story is therefore equal points but sharply different goal returns, without mixing this two-match sample with records from previous seasons.
