It’s time for the Women’s FIFA World Cup to get underway. Hosts New Zealand are up first as they start their march towards a memorable tournament. A celebration of the greatest proportion is prepared for the players as they compete to overcome the hurdle of the group stage. Looking to spoil the party are Norway, a formidable side who will look to do one better than their performance in the previous Euro as they got knocked out of the group stage.
Join us as we go through some of the key matches in this major sporting tournament, offering great insights and betting options at LV BET. Explore the dedicated section to the Women’s World Cup on LV BET Sports Blog for the latest news.
NEW ZEALAND
A tough run-up to the tournament will see New Zealand’s chances of getting a win against Norway decline. Ranked in 25th place in the FIFA rankings, the co-hosts are at 9.75 to win with a double chance for a win or a draw at 3.35. A lift from the crowd is well needed for a chance to make history on the grand stage.
A pretty tight match with under 3.00 goals is priced at 1.75, with the first goal coming between the 11th minute and the 20th minute at 4.50. Hannah Wilkinson will lead the charge from the front with the likes of Ria Percival providing the industry and cutting-edge in the middle of the park.
We are eager to witness the grand opening of this momentous tournament.
NORWAY
Norway have had promising signs of pushing their way through a major tournament but failed to get out of the group stage at the Euros the last time out. The damaging defeat to England dented their aspirations, but now, they are in a group where they are the highest-ranked team according to FIFA, and that could make things easier for them to progress.
Norway are at 1.22 to win the match and valued at 1.85 to win, and over 2.50 goals to be scored in the match. On paper this should be a formality, but with New Zealand being the hosts, it might prove to be a tricky encounter for Norway. They need to stick to their game plan and get an early goal in order to ease off any nerves that the FIFA World Cup brings.
