The Netherlands meet Canada in Reims this Thursday for their third and final match in Group E of the Women’s World Cup. Both teams will want to win for 1st place.
The Netherlands have confirmed their clear progress by winning the European Championship played at home in 2017. Qualified for their 2nd World Cup rank, the Dutch won their first two games and are at the head of this group E. The Netherlands had to first try to defeat New Zealand for their entry (1-0) because of a New Zealand guardian on fire. And during the second day, they took over more easily on Cameroon (3-1).
Quarter finalists at the 2015 World Cup, Canada confirmed at the 2016 Olympic Games by winning a beautiful bronze medal. Like the Netherlands, the Canadian selection has won its first two games. During the first day, the Canadian women respected the hierarchy by dominating Cameroon (1-0), before getting rid of New Zealand more easily (2-0), each time without taking a goal therefore.
Workforce for Netherlands vs Canada
On the Netherlands side, there is a full group including Montpellier Anouk Dekker and Lyonnaise Shanice van de Sanden who are expected to be this evening as the excellent attacker Arsenal, Vivianne Mieidema.
For Canada, 12 players were titularized during the first 2 days, which suggests that the team will move little on the rest of this World. We find a few known heads in France like Kadeisha Buchanan (Lyon) and Ashley Lawrence (PSG). But the nugget Jordyn Huitema (PSG) has not had a minute of play yet. In a classic and solid 4-4-2, captain Christine Sinclair can count on Fleming and Prince to help him in front.
Probable compositions for Netherlands vs Canada:
Netherlands: Van Veenandaal – Van Lunteren, Dekker, Bloodworth, Van Dongen – Roord, Spitse, Van de Donk – Van de Sanden, Miedema, Martens.
Canada: Labbé – Schmidt, Buchanan, Zadorsky, Champman – Beckie, Fleming, Scott, Lawrence – Prince, Sinclair.
In this decisive match to determine who will finish in the first place of the group, we bet on a draw. The Canadian defense can annoy the Dutch but it will be difficult for Canada to win against the European Champions. Draw
