The Scout: Women’s World Cup Matchday 18

Posted on | Posted by The Scout

Round of 16 (3)

England v Nigeria

England won all three of their group games, thumping China 6-1 last time out. Lauren James has been sensational since being given a starting spot, and she will continue to play behind Alessia Russo and Lauren Hemp. At the other end of the pitch, England have defended well and have only conceded one goal so far.

Nigeria are firm underdogs but have performed to superbly to qualify from a tough group. Deborah Abiodun returns from a two-game suspension but may be used as a substitute. Asisat Oshoala is the big name attacker that can cause England problems.

England to win @ $1.27*

Australia v Denmark

Australia are full of confidence after the resounding 4-0 win over Canada and will likely keep the same starting line-up. The combination of Caitlin Foord and Steph Catley on the left side is sure to cause Denmark problems. The Sam Kerr mind games continue but if the superstar striker does feature, it will be off the bench.

Denmark go into the contest with a clean bill of health and no suspensions following a group stage that saw them trek from Perth to Sydney and back again. They have never won a knockout game at a Women’s World Cup but with Pernille Harder leading the line, they have a chance to cause an upset.

Australia to win @ $1.94*
