Canada is listed as a heavy favorite for their opening match against Nigeria but can they keep the sheet clean against in their 2023 World Cup debut? FIFAWWC
Half-time result: Draw To pump up the odds with an SGP, I’m looking for Oshoala to have a big night. She’s the likeliest Nigeria player to break through the Canada back line, and the Super Falcons’ pace and movement shouldn’t be underestimated.
With a strong, deep squad, Bev Priestman’s team are big favorites to start the tournament with a win in Melbourne, and I’m not overly concerned by the Canadians’ lackluster results this summer. The big stage should nudge them into better form, and Jessie Fleming stands out as an X-factor in midfield.
Still, the pedigree is there — they’ve won 11 of the 15 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations tournaments and know their way around these competitions.
