Australia – Nigeria Women Preview: Form, Team News, and Possible Lineups

Check out the latest news and updates on both teams here, including our predicted Australia vs Nigeria Women lineups:

Australia Women

After the first round, Australia can be pleased with the situation since they managed to beat Ireland at the start of the World Cup. That, along with the fact that they are hosting the tournament, should give them enough of a boost to secure a place in the knockout stages. In the meantime, Matildas will once again be without Samantha Kerr, who is trying to recover from her injury and help the team.

Australia Women Predicted Lineup:

Arnold – Catley, Kennedy, Hunt, Carpenter – Gorry, Vine, Cooney-Cross, Raso – Fowler, Foord

Nigeria Women

It was a rough match against Canada in the first round of World Cup, but Nigeria stood their ground and managed to secure a point from that game, which ended without any goals. That keeps the hope of reaching the next stage alive for Nigeria, but the team will be without Abiodun in this game after she was sent off in the 96th minute of the match against Canada.

Nigeria Women Predicted Lineup:

Nnadozie – Plumptre, Ohale, Demehin, Alozie – Echegini, Ucheibe – Payne, Ordega, Oshoala – Onumonu

Player to Watch: Caitlin Foord

With Samantha Kerr bound to miss this game, other players will have to step up for Australia, especially on the offensive end. One of them is Caitlin Foord, our player to watch in this match.

The Arsenal striker will be the most dangerous weapon on offense for Australia and Nigeria will have to keep a close eye on Foord in this duel if they want to get a good result.
