England W vs Colombia Prediction & Betting Tips - Womens World Cup

England come into this Women's World Cup quarter final having won all four of their matches. That includes the penalty shoot out that was required to beat Nigeria in the last 16. England weren't that impressive against the Nigerians and need to rediscover the form that they showed when beating China 6-1. The Lionesses are unbeaten in their last six matches and their defence is playing well. Those six games have seen just one goal conceded and that was the penalty that China scored against them in the group stages. England are ranked fourth in the world and that's 21 places above their South American opponents. A win over Colombia will take them into a semi-final against either Australia or France.

Colombia are in the quarter finals for the first time. In their two previous Women's World Cup finals appearances, their best was getting to the last 16 in 2015. It's gone much better this time for the Coffee Growers who finished top of Group H. They had wins over South Korea and Germany but did lose their final group match against Morocco. The last 16 saw them up against Jamaica and they managed to win that 1-0 thanks to a Usme goal six minutes into the second half. They're tough tacklers as was shown in their friendly against Ireland that was abandoned. They didn't live up to their nickname 'The Powderpuff girls' in that fixture. Colombia have one loss in their last seven completed games but earlier losses to France and Italy indicate they may struggle against England.
