The match

When the 15th ranked Italy take on the 8th ranked Netherlands, we have on our hands a very interesting tactical battle in the Women’s World Cup (WWC) quarter-final. Italy eased past China 2-0 making it to this stage with five wins in six games including friendlies, with their only loss being 1-0 to Brazil. Playing in their first WWC for 20 years, this is the first time in third attempt that Italy have made this far. Indeed, they have won just six WWC matches overall in 11 games (W6, D2, L3) and three of those have come in this edition itself. They have been able to find out a good balance between attack and defense and have been able to control the game in most of their matches this WWC. The Netherlands looked like a team on a mission against Japan starting on a high. They were troubled later on in the game as the passing game of the Japanese caught them hard. However, it must be noted that the Dutch girls are unbeaten in eight games straight, winning the last seven. In the World Cups, they are in just their second tournament and are in their first last-eight encounter.

Key Statistics

Both teams scored in six of Italy’s last nine matches including friendlies.
Both teams scored in five of Netherlands’ last six WWC matches and in each of the three H2H matches.
Netherlands are unbeaten in three H2H matches (W2, D1), although the last one was played in 2014.

The bet of our experts

This is going to be an interesting match between two sides that are evenly matched. No team in the last eight has attempted fewer shots than Italy (46) while the next lowest is the Netherlands (47). The H2H history is leaned towards Netherlands, although it has been over five years that the sides have met last. Considering the tight nature of games, this one is also expected to be tight with goals at both ends expected to be the norm.
