Japan W vs Nigeria W Prediction & Betting Tips - Women's Olympic Tournament
by Kennedy Kechula in Football Predictions
Nigeria Women and Japan Women will face off for the second time at the Olympics when they clash in Group C this Wednesday. Heading into their fifth meeting overall, Nigeria are bottom of the group, three points behind Japan. Read on for our preview of this match and a prediction at the end of the article.
Japan scored two stoppage time goals in Round 2 to complete a comeback against Brazil in one of the Paris 2024 shock results. Their 2-1 win lifted them after a loss by a similar margin against Spain in Round 1.
Saki Kumagai and Momoko Tanikwa scored the late goals that gave Japan their eighth win in their Olympics history. All the last three meetings between these two nations were friendly matches, which the Japanese won with identical 2-0 score lines.
Nigeria are still searching for their first win at the Olympics after 20 years. Their one, and only win at the Olympics happens to have been against Japan, at the 2004 Games. They lost 10 of their total 11 matches at this stage.
Those include their opening two at Paris 2024. In their opening game they fell 1-0 to Brazil and right before this, they were defeated 1-0 by Spain. With the best third placed team guaranteed to advance, Nigeria will be hoping for a win here to activate that option.
It will be a concern for Randy Waldrum that his ladies haven't scored a goal in the last four matches. The four-time African champions have clearly found the going tough at the world stage.

Our Japan W vs Nigeria W Prediction
For these two nations, this is a crucial encounter as far as advancing from Group C is concerned. Nigeria have lost twice and must win here to put themselves in with a chance to progress. This will particularly be tough, looking at both their run against Japan and history at the Olympics.
Japan, who also need a win to be sure of progressing, will be confident here having dominated recent meetings with Nigeria. Their scoring run will also boost them. Our prediction for Japan Women v Nigeria Women is Japan win to nil.
