England Women vs United States Women Match Preview

England Women play what is undoubtedly their biggest ever match, knowing that if they can upset the reigning champions it would make them red-hot favourites to lift the World Cup.

The Lionesses also reached the semi-finals the last time this competition was held in 2015, losing 2-1 to Japan in Canada, but their sport has moved on immensely in the last four years and there will be much greater interest in this test against the American superstars.

With Germany now out of the running, as their conquerors Sweden face the Netherlands in the other semi-final, the winners in Lyon will automatically become long odds-on to hoist the trophy at the same stadium on Sunday.

It’s a huge task for Phil Neville’s side, but they are entitled to feel confident given the way they have progressed through the tournament with five straight victories against Scotland, Argentina, Japan, Cameroon and Norway, each arguably more impressive than the previous one.

There is certainly lots of quality in the England squad, but the Americans are another level up and their attacking triumvirate of Carli Lloyd, Alex Morgan and Megan Rapinoe, with the latter probably the biggest star of this World Cup, will be extremely difficult to suppress.

Matches between these rivals at the SheBelieves Cup in the last few years have been close and that gives England more cause for optimism, but the United States will not want to waste their hard-fought win over hosts France and are backed to edge another narrow victory.
