Australia vs England – Stadium Australia – Wednesday 16th August

Australia ($3.60)

England ($2.35)

Draw ($3.30)

European champions England step into the lion’s den as they take on Australia in the semi-finals, with both sides hopeful that they can live up to expectations and return the World Cup glory.

England have huffed and puffed throughout the tournament, as have Australia to a certain extent – adding a fascinating backdrop to this fixture.

England

It has taken a while, but England have warmed to the task in the 2023 FIFA World Cup and are now in the semi-finals.

Haiti were seen off in laborious fashion in the group stages, as were Denmark but China were thumped, enabling England to top the group.

It was then penalty drama for the Lionesses who edged past Nigeria before they showed real heart to come from behind and beat Colombia in the last 8.

Australia

Dealing with expectation has been key for Australia but the Matildas find themselves in the last 4.

In a tough group with Canada and Republic of Ireland, they managed to come out on top – despite an embarrassing loss to Nigeria in the mix.

Seeing off Denmark in the last 16 was an impressive performance, before edging past France in the quarter finals kept the Australian nation on tenterhooks.

Under 2 goals in the match

Stadium Australia is sure to be rocking here but both England and Australia have played with the handbrake on in this tournament.
