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

England won all three of their matches in Group D with victories over Haiti, Denmark and China. They managed to do that without conceding a goal from open play. After two not very impressive 1-0 wins over Haiti and Denmark, they put six past China. A new 3-5-2 formation worked wonders for the Lionesses. If they play in that fashion again, then they should be able to comfortably defeat Nigeria. They come into this match on an unbeaten run of five games and the penalty scored by China is the only goal they have conceded in those matches. With Lauren James scoring some great goals and making assists, England will be confident of extending their good run of form.

Nigeria are attempting to reach the last eight of the Women's World Cup for the second time. It's 24 years since they last reached that stage when losing 4-3 to Brazil. They finished second in Group B with a win over co-hosts Australia and two goalless draws with Canada and Ireland. Not being able to beat already-eliminated Ireland wasn't a great result. It indicates they will struggle against England who are ranked fourth in the world, They are unbeaten in their last seven internationals but did lose to both Colombia and Mexico at the start of this year as well as two losses to the USA and defeat by Japan towards the end of 2022.
