It's a top-of-the table clash in Group A of the Women's Olympic tournament as France plays Canada at the Stade Geoffroy-Guichard in Saint-Etienne on Sunday. Both teams are on three points after winning their first match, respectively, and this match prediction is of goals from both teams.

France are on top of the points tally, thanks to scoring three goals in the first match, while Canada is right behind them on the same points and goal difference. The hosts started the tournament with a 3-2 win over Colombia, which gave them some anxious moments. After taking a 3-0 lead, it looked like they were set for a big win, but conceding twice in the second half needed them to guard for nearly 30 minutes. That win made it five victories out of the last seven for the French, who are likely to book their spot in the knockouts with a win here.

Canada also started with a win, a 2-1 victory against New Zealand. That result saw them come back from a goal down, with the decider scoring in the 79th minute. This result has kept Canada unbeaten during regular action since October 2023.

A repeat performance could be handy, as a point here could benefit both teams in the final analysis. Looking at the significance of this match in the race to finish in the top two, goals are likely to be in short supply.
