The Scout: Women’s World Cup Matchday 21

Posted on | Posted by The Scout

Quarter Finals (2)

Australia v France

Australia coach Tony Gustavsson has a decision to make – does he restore Sam Kerr to the starting line up or keep faith with the team that dismantled Denmark? A recent win over France in a pre-tournament friendly will only give the team further confidence. Steph Catley and Caitlin Foord have been brilliant on the left wing throughout the tournament and could play a big role in deciding the outcome of the game.

France had an easy time of it against Morocco with the outcome effectively decided within 20 minutes. Grace Geyoro has had a great World Cup so far in midfield, while Sakina Karchaoui could be influential getting forward from left back. Eugenie Le Sommer has taken her international goals tally to 92 and is a constant penalty box threat.

Australia to win @ $3.35*

England v Colombia

England will be without Lauren James for the next two games following her straight red card against Nigeria. Chloe Kelly or Ella Toone are the likely options to replace her. Keira Walsh was a welcome return for the Nigeria game and should be fit to play again in midfield.

Colombia coach Nelson Abadia says his side will adopt a similar approach to the group game that saw them beat Germany 2-1.  Defender Manuela Vanegas is back from a one-match suspension and should be named in the starting eleven. Linda Caicedo is their biggest threat in attack, ably supported by Catalina Usme who netted the winner in the last 16 win over Jamaice.

England to win @ $1.54*
