    Caldentey seems to be in a real rut of form at the moment, it might just be fatigue but misplaced passes and having the ball pinched easily is very unlike her.

    With Bayern Munich in control against Valerenga, it is currently an all-WSL bun fight over the final automatic qualification place.

    And currently, it is Chelsea coming out on top.

    How quickly things can change, hey?

    The Blues could have been down and out had Lucy Bronze not put in a sparkling first half showing, and now they're in command of their own destiny.

    Juventus 0-1 Man Utd

    Manchester United have started the second half like they ended the first.

    A good team move ends in Jess Park curling an effort on target from 20 yards. Not enough power to beat the keeper.

    Here's a turn up for the books. FC Twente have taken the lead against Real Madrid.

    Las Blancas now need two goals without reply if they are to kick Chelsea out of that final automatic qualification spot.

    Chelsea have upped the energy in the final third. Sam Kerr's appreciation of where her teammates are is great.

    They're really unlucky there.

    Whatever Sonia Bompastor said at half time it's worked a treat.

    Sam Kerr and Erin Cuthbert exchange passes on the edge of the D before the Scot tries to pick out the bottom corner and is denied by a brilliant fingertip save from Stina Johannes.

    Ooof.

    OH Leuven 0-2 Arsenal

    Leuven made a double change at half-time as they try to repel the Arsenal wave.

    But the Belgians are still guaranteed a play-off spot as it stands, as Valerenga are losing at Bayern Munich.

    I'm hoping that it isn't an injury. I'm desperate to see Lauren James play week in, week out.

    Sjoeke Nusken is able to operate in that centre midfield and could maybe give some freedom to Erin Cuthbert

    The ball is back rolling in Germany.

    To confirm Sjoeke Nusken has replaced Lauren James at the break.

    Midfielder Sjoeke Nusken is undergoing a rigorous warm up at half time so looks like she's coming on for Chelsea. Who for? Well we'll just have to wait and see.

    If Man Utd win 19-0, we'll quit our jobs.

    HT: Wolfsburg 1-1 Chelsea

    Lucy Bronze was the standout player of that first half in Wolfsburg, she was here, there and everywhere for Chelsea.

    Note the yellow dot in each box on the touch map below. The one on the left was a 41st minute goal saving block, and the one on the right was her 45th minute headed equaliser.

    You can play a team you faced in the league phase again, so Arsenal could be set for an immediate rematch with Leuven.

    Also, one of the winners of the play-off matches featuring sides in fifth of sixth will be in the bracket to play the team finishing fourth in the league phase.

    Put bluntly, we are currently on course for Chelsea v Arsenal or Man Utd in the quarter-finals.
